Abstract:

A description is given of the development work for an RF amplifier tube, useable in the 0 - 200 Mcs frequency range, which exhibits less interferences, as cross modulation, intermodulation, hum modulation and desensitization than in other, presently used, RF tubes. This tube is named tube type WX4733A. The development of a similar tube, indicated as tube type WX4733D, capable of a satisfactory amplification for a frequency range up to 400 Mcs with a similar interference rejection, is also described. In addition, and evaluation of tube type WX4733A in the Navy receiver R390A is given.
