"Jason Buchanan" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> made an utterance to the drakelist gang
----------------------------------------------------------------------
hi,
A long time ago I remember reading somewhere that bias voltage could be
reduced so that there was no idle plate current between CW elements - the
purpose being to lengthen the life of the 6JB6 tubes. I remember that the
person who wrote that email pointed out that this would not work for SSB,
but I don't run SSB on my T-4XB so it's not a problem.
I'm just wondering if this holds true or not and if it is advisable to run
the rig that way, without idle plate current between CW elements instead of
the typical 70 mils of plate current.
Thanks,
Jason
