Lorenz RD12Tf pulse transmitter
triode
 |
The valve measures 90x75mm
overall, plus the handle, and has an 13-pin base. |
Known as the "marmalade
jar" this triode can produce pulses of up to 50kW with anode modulation,
and is usable at wavelengths down to 40cm.

The
base is laid out, as in the picture, with heater and cathode connections
to the far left and right. The upper and lower sets of three pins
are the anode, with the three pins running across the centre being
the grid. This layout allows the valve to operate at high frequencies. |
