I may be purchasing a pair of Sowter outputs for a PPP project.
200 Watts
Ra-a = 1.5k ohms
120mA dc
Secondary for 1, 4, 8/9 or 15/16 ohms
I think 6-8 EL-34s would work well, or 6-8 6L6 tubes.
The output iron is UL tapped.
The thing that gets me when I see specs like these is the 120mA DC.
What is that rating for? 8 EL34 tubes biased at 40mA is 320mA. Granted the DC current rating is per side, so 240mA total, the bias current alone for 8 tubes is higher than the output transformers rating.
Am I missing something?
Also, has anyone ever used Sowter? Are they any good?
Thanks!
