Default Seeking solid state exciter/driver circuit for 5763 tube

I think the 5763 tube requires 0.1W class C RF drive for full output.

Can anyone point me please to any solid state HF RF drivers that would
be handy for driving this tube? *Possibly with digital readout. I don't
have recent radio handbooks. Thanks.


I would think most VFOs could do this with the proper impedance
matching.My friend did something like this and either used a 4:1 or
16:1 stepup transformer to drive the tube. I think he used an HP
signal generator at one time to drive the circuit which was a 5763
driving a 6146B.
