Thanks for the tip Ed. Have down loaded schematic for Eldico rig to see
how it was done. In Europe this tube was used in a Fish Phone rig
(2-4MHz) made by Salor Radio of Denmark. I know it can be done, but
with four tubes in parallel ? Best 73

Yes, the Amperex 5894 tube (equivalent to the Mullard QQV06-40A)
was used in the Eldico SSB-100 series of 100W output HF transmitters,
which first appeared in 1956.
