Plate Modulating The Mighty 833A

Update: 8/10/2023
I backed off this project and turned to modulating an already built grounded grid (GG) amplifier built for class-B, SSB amplification. The amplifier was biased for class-C and plate modulated. It turned out surprisingly well and I have been using it on 40M and 20M AM.

Making one of my favorite amplifiers that runs class-B for SSB to run class-C and high-level plate modulate it with a pair of Eimac 3-400Z.
UPDATE 5/17/2023: I am posting public today for your entertainment as this project has been moved over into the corner for now as other things have come up. I had a bunch of problems right from the start like shorting 5KV capacitors, arcing across the Millen connectors during modulation, arcing plate voltage under modulation around the plate current meter - it has been a challenge to modulate more than 3KV where peak voltages go over 6 KV. Just thought some of you might enjoy the scenery of the project still in progress. Stay safe...
