[AMRadio] Any AM ops in my area?
Hey gang are there any AM ops in the Owensboro, KY or Evansville, IN area who could help me trouble shoot my Heath DX 60? I am deathly afraid of High voltage. I want to get it on the air and working well. Thanks.

Re: [AMRadio] Heathkit DX-60 grid current drops (Larry Szendrei)

But that's not all that can go wrong. Make sure the final grid bias resistor hasn't drifted off-tolerance or changing value as it heats up. If it is, replace it. I have also had bad final tubes (pair of 6146s in a DX-100) create the symptoms you describe. Originally I thought for sure the problem was with the drive signal, but that wasn't what it turned out to be. 73 es GL, -Larry/NE1S Reply by Jim, WD5JKO: Adding to what Larry says, it could be that the 6146 is running too hot. By hot I mean the filament voltage is too high, and a fragment of the cathode oxide has detached and landed on the control grid. If this is the case, with RF excitation, the fragment gets hot and becomes an electron emitter which will cause the grid current to gradually drop, and then reverse. This happens frequently with the 4D32. With the 4D32, lowering the filament voltage from 7'ish to around 6 volts usually makes the tube behave better. I've not seen this with the 6146, but it could happen, especially when running a vintage BA at today's higher AC line voltage.
