My RCA ET-4336F is a SBE. Due to the fact it uses single source B+. Its
legit though because I am not intentionally modulating the oscillator. The

Ed,
My recent EL-34 project runs linear AM with a single tube biased and
driven for AB2. With a resonant tank circuit on the plate you don't have to
run class A for single ended class linear amplifier. You are correct for
most audio circuits however.

Steve,
What about some of us AM'ers that have a sub-audible frequency shift with
modulation due to poor power supply regulation, and decoupling? This is
pretty common with some of our "cherished" vintage equipment. It does have a
beneficial effect though in that it when strong discourages a SSB st

I would not modulate the oscillator, Steve. You would probably get more
FM than AM. Low level means the early stages of a transmitter. You should
have a buffer stage between the osc and the mod to prevent pulling the
osc during modulation. All stages after the modulator have to be linear.
That mean

Hi , it is illegal to use a modulated oscillator below about 2 meters. It
will work but adds FM even to a crystal oscillator. In fact commercial vhf
equipment using crystals actually phase modulate the crystal oscillator to
get FM. They of course go through several multiplications to get the plus

Hi Steve: Yes, Rothman Modulation is a sort of "clamp tube" modulation

to look like 100% modulation. As I recall, it mainly modulates downward to

Hi All:
As I understand it, low level modulation is anything prior to the amp.
Therefore, is it possible to modulate the grid oscillator RF input signal -

There was a Rothman circuit, worked well but I would not use it today.
The tube in the antenna lead could generate harmonics without a low pass

What kind of "crappy" antennas are you using, i.e., doublets fed with coax,
open wire lines, etc., or end-fed wires? Or, some combination of types
maybe?
Rather that building up a bunch of tuners you might consider putting your

As 10 meters began its decline a few years ago, I would often ask AM
operators if they ever used 15 meters. With very few exceptions, the answer
would usually go something like: "No, because I never hear anyone else down
there."
There was AM activity for a brief time around 21.400, and on 21.43

There is already an AM group on approx 14.286. I haven't run 20m AM since
the early 70's. It is OK for one-on-one contacts, but when roundtables
develop, there is the problem of the erormous skip zone on 20. You can
count on one or more members of the roundtable being inaudible, so you spen
