Abstract:

Tube design efforts continued in the areas of grid structures and the bonded heater-cathode structure. The first grid structure to provide a spectrum with no appreciable FM content was used with the radiation-type heater-cathode structure. Tubes were fabricated incorporating this grid structure, plus minor variations, with the bonded heater-cathode structure. Because of excess power in the local oscillator function, and mechanical problems, oscillator DC-4 was discontinued in favor of oscillator No. EL-PO X-1, to which the following modifications were made Installation of an effective rf choke in the grid circuit addition of a 18 in. tuning shaft redesign of the feedback circuit increased length of the oscillator body and redesign of the heater connections.
