Back in the day, I made a CW rig using two 6L6's in the final. No tube plates were exposed, so I built it so that all the tubes were on top of the chassis. I really like how the transmitter looked and I'm thinking about building something similar. This time, it'll be a series modulated rig with a 5763 driving a 7984 compactron.
I was looking at this design on the AMwindow for the overall concept:
http://www.amwindow.org/tech/htm/series.htmCould I use a 6L6 in place of the 6AQ5 in the modulator?
The power transformer I have on hand is 476vct (for the high and low voltages). It also has 12.6vct for the filaments (the 7984 filament would use a different transformer), and it has a 5 volt winding for the DDS VFO to drive the 5763.
I'm just thinking about building this since I already have most of the parts. It'd be PW, but sound really good. Did I mention it would look really cool?
