HELP !! I am looking for a schematic and information for a Navy ship TAJ-19 transmitter that I recently acquired. It was made by General Electric in 1944 and uses one 861 in the Final and three 860's. Any leads on where I can get information for it would be most helpful. I have found some inform

[AMRadio] Testing High Voltage Diode Blocks

2008-06-07 Thread Bob Deuel
There have been some comments about H.V. diodes not testing but seem to be ok. I assume that people are testing them with the diode function of a digital multimeter. Typically, a H.V. diode has a number of diodes in series within it which makes it have a higher voltage drop than a normal diode

There has been alot of discussion regarding electrolytic capacitor leakage. Here are the "official" specifications. The JAN-C-62 specification addresses the maximum acceptable allowable leakage for electrolytic capacitors. (There is also an EIA specification but it is the same as Jan-C-62). The

I agree that substituting a 6V6 for a 6L6 is quite a stretch. I am an active and founding member of the Tube Collectors Association, Inc. Over the years the topic of tube substitution guides has been discussed within our group. The general consensus is that there are numerous "tube substitution

Somehow his email got dumped before I could respond. I would appreciate another contact from that gentleman so I can correspond. Than

Rick: I got excited when I found both a Sangamo 0.0001 and a .00015 Mfd. 2500 wdcv type A2 capacitor in the parts bin. However when I tested both of them they were both shorted. What a bummer! I also found a Cornell-Doublier type 9LSA 0.0001 Mfd. at 2500 wvdc that looks physically identical to t

I have a bunch of 803's. In the past, I have seen modulator articles featuring triode connected 813's. Physically, the 803 also looks like it would be a good candidate for the same application. Has anybody tried triode connecting 803's for a modulator? If so, what were the design parameters did you

Craig: I have a 2-inch monitor scope that was built from a schematic that appeared in the 1950 ARRL Handbook, page 490. You might be able compare your circuit against that schematic and get a "ballpark value" for the capacitor you seeking information on. 73, Bob, K2GLO -Original Message- F

Hello Larry and all: Larry's tongue in cheek comment employing 866's as a linear amplifier tube prompted me to contribute the following: Certain full-wave rectifiers can be configured to amplify or oscillate. I have built audio, Hartley and Simpson oscillators using only 6AX5GT's full-wave rectifi
