Hi Tim,

There was an article in QST or QEX about using microwave parts to
build power supplies for linears. Very interesting. Very scary,
considering that the author also used old refrigerator drawers as the
case...


Just curious: Do people still build linears with tubes and HV supplies
or is it much cheaper now to use transistors? Mine were all tubes but
that was about 20 some years ago when FETs and BJT were just way out
there in terms of cost.

Regards, Joerg
