Carl/KM1H propositioned about WWII aircraft interphones:

I'm surprised to see such complete nonsense appearing in print on this
forum, save from a very few.
> In that case it fits its description as an amplifier...
You can't be serious...now I know you are joking. Otherwise would admit
to a serious lack of understanding of the fundamentals of physics and
electrical engineering.
> ...and a 6F8 is far from a wimpy tube.
Nor is the 12A6 or 6K6 or 6V6 in the AF output sections of the various
aircraft receivers. What's your point?
The 6F8 in the BC-347-* is only an interphone carbon microphone amplifier.
It is not an amplifier of the outputs of **any** receiver that is connected
to the interphone system.
Have a good day, Carl. But, just between us friends, why do you **never**
use your **real name** and **call sign** when posting? I always seem to
have to help you with that! Never fear, though...I'll always be willing
to help my old friend Carl.
