Bob,
I'm NOT Pete. He may feel insulted. LOL
You're using a PI network, NOT a link tuned system. If you reduce
loading, AND maintain plate dip, You will indeed reduse output AND go
NON-RESONANT.
This opens a whole other can of worms.

No Pete,
I am saying to reduce the load capacitor and maintain the dip on the plate
capacitor.
It's the same as reducing the coupling on a link coupled final.

Bob,
While the plate transformer may well handle that, you are tuning off
resonance of the PI network. That results in tuning off the Plate dip.
I would NOT imagine that this concept would do the 6146s any good at all.
I would suspect that a reduction of Drive would be wiser.

Can't you just run at reduced input by reducing the loading? Then run
the
tube(s) at the CCS rating. The power transformer should take that.

George,
Good question! There is NO mention of RTTY operation ANYWHERE in the
Apache Manual.
I'm also not sure how you can safely reduce the power out put following
the tuning procedures, WITHOUT doing some damage to some components.
It does just fine on AM and CW. Mixed results on SSB with the SB-10.
