813 verses four 807 valves for mitters

Should you use an 813 or four 807's for a 100 watt transmitter.

I so enjoyed this. Seeing the re-used chassis and panel, the chain-drilled large holes, the point-to-point wiring, and hand-wound coils brings back fond memories of my first 807-based transmitter in 1963.

Bloody fantastic - and inspiring stuff. Really enjoyed seeing the work you've done, and getting to see it all up close with the detailed explanation. Fascinating!

[@SpinStar1956]

Appreciate all your hard work. 73… 😊

[@Radio478]

Great thanks 👍 from England

Excellent stuff and very inspirational video. This is real radio. I wish my vintage junkbox components was half as extensive. I find those 2.5mh chokes very hard to come by but have a few in reserve. Will have to have a rummage soon and get building. Many thanks for sharing the video. 73 from North East England. M0DAD David.

807s are very nice for guitar amplifiers. They have a good tone and even harmonics

[@chris_vk3cae]

Another excellent production 👍

[@luckydubeinrc5165]

love guys like this...we build it, you can buy it over a counter for a few thousand, well done and good explanations, i enjoyed looking into your valve world.

[@Vortex5Australia]

amazing, bloody amazing... Let's hope you hit those tropic bands soon...

[@kristhompson8112]

Just dropped in on your channel , Sounding very much like a ZL accent brother if I'm not correct, If it glows in the dark the better, if it glows x4 in the dark, now your talking. Wish I knew more about this old boat anchor High voltage kit. Just love it Regards and 73's Auckland NZ

Nice old stuf. Albert the netherlands Also Nice weather There 📻🇳🇱

VERY MUCH APPRECIATED. I REMEMBER I USED THREE 813 IN MY HOME MADE TRANSMITTER. THE PLATES WENT RED HOT DURING SSB TRANSMISSION AND I USED TO PASS MIKE. I DID NOT ARRANGE FORCE AIR COLLINS. REGARDS, AP2KD.

I use the miniature 807 called 5B/254M. It is electrically identical and I get 75mA cathode current at 600V and 30 W output in AB1. 73

[@gordonwelcher9598]

The 814 is something like 1/2 of an 813. 1500 volts, 150 ma, 60 watts dissipation. Years ago I remember buying them for about $2. Not very common nowadays. They worked well if you don't mind 1500 volts.

Hey very nice...I built a linear amplifier whit two 813 in grounded grid configuration and that thing make a lot of audio big audio coming out from those bottles. 73"...W

[@eddyaudio]

A Wonderful Transmitter Dave

[@eddyaudio]

And you are wonderful at Recycling as they Junk keep this excellent effort Dave Ian Vk2IJ.

[@dhisnadhamayanthi1135]

I have seen grampian audio amplifier s with 807 out put tubes

[@lc79tourer26]

Good work Dave inspiring stuff and I'm still missing your missions if the counts for anything?

[@vk3ase]

Never new any one listened.

[@assumedspider8419]

watched this a few times do you have any schematics? cheers!

[@kennethmcclure29]

Thank you very much. Reminds me of years past when everyone built their own equipment. Ken from gpt ms

[@Paul_VK3HN]

A lifetime of building, using and thinking about valve AM transmitters let's you do this... a 200 watt tube AM Tx made out of stuff most hams would bin! Great work Dave, the global semiconductor shortage hasn't bothered you.

В СССР выпускался с строковых годов "клон" 813 -й лампы под названием ГУ-13 ( как и (г-807- 807)

[@towerman75]

I'm sure you are a good technician, but your construction practices would make one have nightmares.

[@erwe1054]

Radio pirate ? AM mod good!!!

[@mohinderkaur6671]

807 x 4 is much lower impedance and low voltage design

[@vk3ase]

Yes one of the big advantages, but can take off at vhf and mess things up if you are not careful.

[@user-ht9ks7hn5s]

И все таки когда нибудь инопланетяне вам ответят

[@user-oj1zq5do5y]

Это ты о чем?

[@MrTalaue]

Nice pile of scrap

[@user-oj1zq5do5y]

Советские генераторные радиолампы Г-807 и 813 были сворованы у американской фирмы RCA?
