Hi Pete

Stabilise both Plate es Screen on an Oscillator, followed by a Cathode follower to avoid chirp and osc pulling.

The T1154 was very unstable with a bad chirp, surprised it ever passed Quality Control

Hi Dimitris and group

 

I have not seen the schematic but it is usual to stabilise the screen of a power oscillator to reduce chirp on key down.

Now you have shown us yours I will show you mine. I usually sketch the schamatic after the event so foregive the presentation on the back of an envelope.

I now get at least 4Watts after adjusting the ant link coupling away from the chasis. Best audible DX Kent 80miles best Opera DX PA0 land.

It's embarassing. I like the glow of VR tubes! :-)
