I was confused, Ron... no the screen doesn't need to be
resonant. It's merely a control voltage.
Now, there -is- a need to modulate the screen of the
final.

The best way to do that is put a choke in the screen lead.
Or drop the B+ through a big resistor if you run 2

Good evening - I have really enjoyed reading this thread. I have

Ken,
Very well done - thanks for sharing the trip.
I got my Novice ticket in 1954 when I was a freshman in highschool and got my
First Class Radiotelephone ticket when I graduated. We had a lot of common
experiences whithout ever meeting.
Again, thanks for the great presentation.

That was interesting reading Ken. Up until you started with
high power, I was with you. I licensed in late 1955 and got
on 80 meter CW as a Novice about 6 months later. My parents
would not let me order anything until I knew I had passed
the test. ARC equipment followed for about a year and
current extra test...
