Yes I have always been told by G3UUR that an ideal turns ratio is around 1.4:1 Now would that typically be with a centre tap on the primary side for the P-P mod tubes? In other words the 1.4 side gets a centre tap? I am also looking at voltage ratios of suitable ready-made old transformers...

Steve, There was a series in ER (Electric Radio), by W3BYM, Tom Marcellino. He built an AM 2-813s modulating 2-813s. It is a beautiful looking and sounding rig. Very much in the class of T-368s or BC-610s. Perhaps even better! If interested, I'll hunt through the collection and get

Hey guys: Thanks for all this education on the plate modulator for my 2 x 813's. Seems to me that: 1. current carrying capability of the wire is first; 2. turns ratio ( creating impedance ) comes next; Just how difficult would it be to make one? Our predecessors did. E/I core or over/under o

For a close idea of the 813s' needs as far as using them for AM goes, have a look at the transmitting tube manual such as the RCA TT-4. Pick a set of data that gets you close to the RF output you desire. ++ For the PA, 1600VDC at 150mA per tube (300mA) provides 360 watts

Corrections to the last email: Actually Steve, the idea is pretty simple. When using a class C final amplifier the output RF voltage is directly proportional to the plate to cathode voltage. Most of the time the cathode is grounded so we just say "plate voltage" or "plate modulation". This mea
