Thanks for great memories. As I said in the comment to your last video, I worked on transmitters using these rectifiers back in the 1970s. A bank of 12 of these in 2 x 6 phase bridge configuration could deliver 11kV dc at around 40 amps. It was always great to see the dippers jump up as the transmitter HT was started, followed a moment later by the blue glow from the 12 tubes. We didn't use the grid control to vary output power, but simply had the facility to switch one bank completely off to reduce the supply voltage while we tuned up the transmitter. The grid, was, of course, biassed positively by a potential divider of encapsulated resistors so that the grid sat , I think, around half the anode voltage. I seem to remember that the excitation could be turned off to kill the output quickly in the event of an overload on the transmitter (which were frequent!). The high voltage AC was controlled by an oil circuit breaker in the substation which would take a good part of a second to operate, so this fast acting protection by the MARs was important. Incidentally, we always called these tubes "Ex-ee-trons", not "Excite-trons" - don't know if we were correct, but I guess we probably got the pronunciation from English Electric who origianally made these tubes, I believe, when the transmitters were installed in the 1960s. Thanks, from an old transmitter man for bringing this back to life!

My favorite part other than how he explained how it worked - was when he decided to hook it up to an audio output. That was awesome. And it's a very good demonstration of AM - amplitude modulation and frequency. I just love how he took an analog signal in AC and used it to feed an AC to DC conversation to prove his point. Bravo. It took me back into the 80's and 90's. Now I'm wondering what the lifespan of the rectifier would be if I used it in the same way for a lot of music.
@kaya92933 жыл бұрын
Wondering the same... maybe use the output to some heavy material on a continuous feed for a "nearly unlimited" audio bandwidth(As far as human hearing goes) on the output of the mix. Heck if 2 inch was the Master Standard, think of a heavy bar of magnetic memory type materials in layers to capture the unique output characteristics of each material in the layer. Maybe the 30v layer could carry a digital pulsed signal across it with your analog across the mains. (think time-coding, midi, and any other time lock clocks to synch equipment?) or (furthermore maybe compressed forms of the medium?) Meh maybe nothing new here... but hey, to have a recording venue alight with all these tubes, would be wicked. Now these recordings would be played on a custom venue pa designed for the increased bandwidth of this recording medium to just use stupid amounts of power needlessly... just because it might sound cool. yee. Shrugs shoulders ...if= ...off to another tangent. If I had money I would try to build the worlds most unique music venue, weird, quirky and strange that the whole time off prime time of the "paid shows" people could sign up for time slots to just play and jam through the system at will with doors open and free as a art center to if you chose to hear random artists its free, if you want specific is pay because of having to pay the band. But again, the pay side would just be the support for the freedom of expression of art aside from big music, aside from server platforms... if no one is jamming you'd be able to just walk up plug in and jam with an on staff sound crew 24/7. Feel free to put your opensource music waves out into the ether. Feels good to dream.

@Ghost Heart well and a few hacks make it better. For example if you've got underpowered tool that can take the power upgrade the motor. Got it all puny not-so-good vacuum going around use it in the shop for dust collection and power takeoff! But may not necessarily be broken but could be repurposed into something better or maybe make it better in some way more suited to your use. Such as adding circuitry to a plain old dumb fan to make it work with say a smart speaker or other smart device even though it was not broken in the first place you fixed it and made it better that ever was so that could really be you fixing something that's not broken depending on how you look at it

@Ghost Heart He was another youtuber that was all about content and chaos. None of this popularity or monetization BS. Sadly, he succumbed to depression and exited this world.

Using a audio signal to control the grid was pretty neat, I was telling someone at work how cool it would be to make a MAR glow to the music. It can be done by the looks of it.
