transmiting triode in question



Original poster: "Metlicka Marc by way of Terry Fritz <twftesla-at-qwest-dot-net>" <mystuffs-at-orwell-dot-net>

Hello all,
I have posted a pic of the 10kw transmitting tube (GU10A) that i am in
need of info, onto my site.
see:http://www.fortunecity-dot-com/meltingpot/syria/1210/id26.htm
At the bottom of the page, and click for full size (sorry about the slow
loading speed, i need to resize a bunch-o-pics on my site).
If any coilers know anything about this type tube, and especially how
the water jacket is built and connected, sealed, cooled, i would be very
grateful.
It just so happens that i think the "funky" transformers that i
scrounged will work for both the filament and plate (i'm hoping), but i
need to be able to cool this "monster".
Also, If anyone has suggestions as to a good circuit design or coil
config for this tube, I'm all ears? I would like to try raw AC, and
johns staccato, maybe switching back and forth? I have a bunch of other
tubes in case it would be best to drive this with other tubes? This tube
coil project will be a slow roller, but i'm sure the list will be a big
part of it's design and setup, so it will be everyone's coil i guess,
with advice from all. And a 10kw+ tube coil should make some interesting
display, length of discharge,, i couldn't even hazard a guess, but i got
7" from 400 watts from my vt-127a's.
Thanks in advance,
Marc M.
