[Drake] Plate Parasitic Suppressor for L-75 Needed

[Bob Camp]

Hi

Plate caps for 3-500Z’s are pretty common / can be made. The suppressor on many amps was a  22 ohm 2W carbon comp resistor with about 4 turns of number 18 on it. Number of turns and value of the resistor varied from design to design. I doubt any of them were perfect. 

If nobody comes up with anything - make one.
