  • ARGUS, the VCR97 CRT, the PENTODE THAT WON the WAR and “MY ARGUS”
    PRACTICAL TELEVISION MAGAZINE'S ARGUS, THE VCR97 CRT, THE PENTODE THAT WON THE WAR and “MY ARGUS”. Dr. Hugo Holden, Oct. 2016. (Updated Nov.2016- Argus Filters & case page 37. Change to sync Sep value, pg 14) INTRODUCTION: Firstly some photos of “My Argus”. This name, throughout this article, refers to my unique version of the Argus build your own Television project from Practical Television (P.T.) magazine 1952. My Argus has a different mechanical construction philosophy and altered electrical design which is described in this article: SCREEN IMAGES: The Argus employed the VCR97 CRT (Radar Cathode Ray Tube). Just how good is a VCR97 CRT at producing a 405 line television picture? The answer to this question depends on the actual VCR97 you have and the performance of the set’s vision amplifier and video output stage. Some VCR97’s, due to an anomaly in their electron gun and deflection plate construction, cannot deflect a full screen image. Other VCR97’s now have low emission and brightness and while being ok for a single line scope or radar display, are poor for displaying a TV scanning raster. After sorting through a good number of them I selected the better performing tube. A number of screen images are shown below. The screen image photographs below show that the horizontal and vertical scanning linearity is not perfect. It is a little stretched at the start of the horizontal scan and compressed a little at the end vertical scan. This turned out to have a different reason in the line and frame oscillator/deflection circuits and was subsequently remedied with simple modifications described later in this article.

  • SHARP-CUTOFF PENTODES.—(Continued)
    570 RECEIVING TUBES [Sue. 14-4 14»4. Tetrodes and Pentodes.—Tetrodes and pentodes are most con• veniently classified according to function rather than to structure, and the tubes of this section will be classified primarily as r-f amplifiers or as power output tubes. There are many tubes which might be considered as belonging in either or both of these categories, but the great majority fall clearly into one or the other class. R-f Amplifiers.—R-f and i-f amplification in radio receivers is now almost invariably obtained from small pentodes, which may be classified on the basis of their cutoff characteristics into sharp-cutoff and remote- cutoff types. The latter type is occasionally and rather meaningless designated the "super control" type, and in some tube fists the former type is vaguely called a "triple grid amplifier." Some tubes are inter• mediate in character between the two classes, and are called "semi• remote-cutoff" pentodes; they may most conveniently be classed with the remote-cutoff tubes. Sharp-cutoff pentodes have Eg-Ip characteristics such that plate current and transconductance decrease to practically zero when the con• trol grid is made a few volts negative. In a remote-cutoff pentode they will decrease rapidly at first with increasing negative grid bias, but the rate of decrease becomes less and the quantities become essentially zero only when the negative bias becomes comparatively large. This remote- cutoff or variable-Mu characteristic is desirable when a variable bias ve£k- age is used to control the gain of the tube as in the ordinary receiver AVC circuit.

  • Secret Radar Valve the EF50 Part 1
    The secret radar valve the EF50 Part 1 By Graham Dicker Introduction Over the last 50 years or so I have had a love & hate affair with the EF50, having said that the more that I work with this valve the more I can appreciate the secrets that it’s design unravel as time progresses and information comes available. I am sure that this wonderful valve has been overlooked by many for all kinds of projects by the home constructor. In this two part series I will attempt to unlock some of it’s characteristics, idiosyncrasies that I have discovered. There is plenty of information on the web about this so I don’t intend to re-hash what you can already find, but concentrate my efforts on what is not so obvious , and harder to find and understand. Some history along the way is always a good thing. The EF50 is also known as the VR91 CV1091 ARP35, later versions are the EF54, EF55 and the EF90. The valve is a fully controlled pentode, and as such was used in a number of FR applications the most famous as an IF strip. Prior to WW2, most radio communication work was in the HF band (below 30mhz), most RF valves at that time tended to perform quite poorly at 30mhz and above, while being researched and being used communication had not extended above 100mhz at the time due to poor valve gains at these frequencies. There were two main issues, the first was caused by the inductance and capacitance of the internal leads, the second was due to the finite time that the electrons took to travel between the valve electrodes.
