Well to be honest I never saw the inside of one but a friend of mine had one, at least I think that is what he had. Now I'm not sure. Was there another model XCVR by Gonset that was similar but had low level modulation? I did have a silver faced G-7--- something, mobile XMTR with separate power supply / modulator where the modulators were triode connected zero biased as you described. Was it a G-77? I just can't remember but it was not a XCVR, just a XMTR. I think it had a 6146 in the final and the modulators were 6DQ6s. The receiver I used was PMR7 Multi ELMAC.
God, those were the good old days!

It uses two 6dq6 tubes as modulators, modulating a 6dq5. What you might remember is the modulator tubes use the screen grid or protection grid, not the regular control grid for audio drive, and are set up as zero bias triodes.... A very neat little rig.

I did not remember the G-76 as being a plate modulated rig but as a screen modulated instead. But then I am old and I forget a lot.

I am still cleaning out stuff I don't seem to use that has filled up the basement. Gonset G76 with home built power supply (looks very nice). This is a trans/receiver, sort of a receiver and transmitter in one small and really cool looking cabinet. 80 through 6 meters, VFO, plate modulated, puts out about 70 watts of carrier. ______________________________________________________________ AMRadio mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.html Post: mailto:AMRadio@mailman.qth.net ______________________________________________________________ AMRadio mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.html Post: mailto:AMRadio@mailman.qth.net
