Nice explanation Sandeep, thank you very much..
At home I still use my lovely Yaesu FT101-ES , HF Gen Coverage for up to last
10 years....the driver and final were tubes deliver up to 100 watts barefoot
..Yes, it is still work at rather hi swr w/ my homebrew OCL dipole of only 16 m
span w/ it's internal manual tuner..
Regards,
pakdedar..

As to run them on battery, & for others who missed :
" it is best that you treat the all-band HF linear as a separate project. Add
the driver and pre-drivers to it too, so it takes 1mW in and gives whatever
your target power is.
so now once you are done with the linear, you
won't have to rebuild it again and again for each of the future rigs.
here is a rhetorical q. why transistors? why not one or two 807s or 1625s?
their filaments can still operate out of 12v supply, a simple {*inverter made
out of two 2N3055s driving a 12-0-12 transformer} in reverse can provide you
with juice to power their anodes. They will give you unfailing, very stable
power of up to 50 watts (a single 6146B can give you up to 70 watts). They
will almost never blow up and they will work on the first try.
the voltages are very bad. but no, they wont kill
you unless you want to die of them willingly.
if u use a pair of 6.3v filament valves, you can attach them in series and
power them from {*12vdc}. alternatively, you can attach two 220-v to 6-0-6
transformers back to back, rectify the HV AC coming of the second
transformer and tap the 12 ac between the transformers for filament power.
this is engineering folks,
on the plus side, the valve amp is usually rock stable, capable of matching
with wide varieties of loads, and it will give you years of service with
its warm glow for a few more millamps on the filaments."
