As I have problems myself with getting the transmitter to work, I stumbled upon this site: https://qsl.net/ve7sl/paraset.html It has diagrams with measurements (read about his PSU) that can be helpful. And interesting mods. Pin 4 grid1 should be negative to get amplification going. Tube handbook say...

Hi Jan
Measure the current of the Plate. It must not exceed 13 mA.
Check Grid#1 voltage. Should be minus 1 V.

Sorry for the late answer.

Hi Matt,

That's just what it is, a very small capacitor formed by a few twists around a wire.

Here you can just see it:

Due to the 2 var caps Antenna and tank tuning, the Paraset is very forgiving concerning antenna length.
But it was designed to end-fed antenna, and not hang up, half wave high!

Only read it today. So you want to put a 200 pF cap in series with a 200 pF variable cap. That will work, only the characteristic of the tuning will be a bit "odd". Throw in the values here: https://www.digikey.com/en/resources/conversion-calculators/conversion-calculator-series-and-parall...

Hello Jan Thore I found this: Contents of a sealed container PARASET / Contenu du container etanche de Paraset Source Pascal F8JZR Tks Pascal de f6eju Contenu d’un container étanche : Un émetteur récepteur Paraset type MK VII en boitier métal avec 3 tubes et cordons d’alimentation. Une alimentation ...

They just did not do that, back then. This indication was also used on capacitors.

Hi Matt

Micro Micro = pico
(10 to power 6 plus 10 to power 6 = 10 to power 12)
