Gi-7b's for 6 meters 

Some time ago got the hots to run more power on 6 meters.  Initially I thought about running a pair of 4CX250B's, and actually started the project.  Progress lagged as I began to think about providing screen and bias voltage.  I remembered that K5QE had suggested using Russian tubes and investigated that possibility.  It soon became apparent that this was the way to go.  I have plenty of drive from the FT-920, and the 2 KV at 1 amp from my power supply is a nice match to Gi-7b's.  I abandoned the pair of 4CX250B's for the GI-7b's and was off and running.  The project is still in progress, but I will post here the ongoing results of the project.  Below are some pictures showing the initial efforts on the amplifier.
