[AMRadio] Has anyone built a linear using a 6c21 or 750TH?

2008-06-21 Thread AirRadio


Has anyone built a linear using a 6C21 or 750TH, I found one of these, sadly 
heater o/c in a hamfest recently and thought it might make a great project 
if I could find a bit more about it and a working example, so if you have a 
6C21 or a 750TH in your junk box then I would be interested in making it 
into a project amp. It would go well with my BC-610, ART-13 and other 
boatanchor radios.  73 Max M0GHQ

Max, I will e-mail an article from CQ in the 1950's about the use of 6C21's 
in an amp.I think it was called the 100-Watt Contest Special.

Yes!

Just last weekend I acquired a beautifully-constructed grounded-grid 
amplifier from the estate of John Rollins, W1FPZ, using (2), count them, 
two, 6C21s. I did not, however, get the plate supply with it - that went 
to someone else, as I have no room for it. It's a single-band amp for 
15M, but would easily convert to other bands. It's constructed 
breadboard-style on a wooden base covered with an aluminum groundplane. 
John was a real craftsman and engineer, and even homebrewed the 
hypersil-core filament iron.


Someday I'll fire it up, but right now it's sitting on the top of a 6' 
rack just sitting pretty and providing mood lighting for the shack!

Larry, That sounds absolutely georgeous, please send me a pic sometime if 
you have a digi camera. they are really nice looking tubes arn't they., I 
would imagine the plate supply is around 5kv or thereabouts, the 250TH in my 
BC-610 is a pretty nice looking beast as well, gives a lovely rounded AM 
signal that everyone comments on. 73 Max M0GHQ

Mark, Fantastic, I'll have to find a working one and get the soldering iron 
out, that 6m amp looks like just the ticket now the sunspots are coming... I 
am surprised with the size of the electrodes that it copes with that high 
frequency, I suppose though if it was used as a pulse tube then it is OK. it 
would take quite a lot to melt that anode. The $100 KW final looks fun to 
make too, now I know what to do with the redundant BC-610 tank coils hihi.
