AM transmitter build - by Tim
#16

Ok, I have some answers.

The freq is 1mhz.

Hum is very dependent on antenna tuning - good tune less/no hum.

I might still have the schematic, or possibly 35Z5 has it.

I think the tubes are 12V versions - using a 6V was the reason for the bulb/resistor.

Here is my post from that other site:

Well I took out the light bulb ( I kind of miss it) and swapped in the 12 volt tube in place of the 6CS6. Then I swapped out L2 for the 680 uh coil. By the way, I am using the 1000kH x1. The unit tunes to a 10 foot ant now with better range. although what I had before was fine, now you can hear it outside on the truck's radio. Adjusting the VC is easier with peaks not as sharp.

Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
