[Tube-Swap] Need a pair of HF300's

Sun, 1 Feb 2004 18:13:20 -0800 (PST)

Well Bill you bring up some good points.

I inherited this transmitter from a friend.  I am just hoping to keep it
original at least as being vintage is concerned. 

Re the glow, if I got those carbon plates glowing I would be concerned HI!

I suppose when it comes down to it I can always swap out to a more available
tube. Heck, I was even considering 304's or 250's as you mentioned.

The modulators are HF200's, the exciter / doubler is a 807 & HF100. All in a
fully packed 7ft rack.

Maybe a pair of 250's modulating a pair of 250's is not a bad idea.

I don't know how many years the transmitter has sat idle but I will get it
going sometime soon.  Hey, its been around since about 1937- a couple more
years will be insignificant!
