Some advice on a Champ 5F1 build (from Mojo)

[bob p]

I'm not really bothered by what happens if you use the calculator. It clearly demonstrates frequency response shaping for any reasonable value that an amp builder is likely to use.

Bruce, didn't you co- publish a spreadsheet that does the same thing? It would have been a long time ago if my feeble memory is remembering correctly...

Run a single wire from their junction over to the positive end of your power tube's cathode bypass cap.

bruce, borrowing from what i did on my two mission tweed deluxe builds -how about this (not running grounds from the pilot light the way mojo shows but running them from pins 2 and 7 of the power tube to the positive end of the power tube cathode bypass cap? hope the drawing i edited shows it.

sorry picture too small. hope this works better

HA ha... NO
You'll blow it to the moon like that.
On the power tube socket, run a 100 ohm resistor from lug 2 to 8 and another 100 ohm resistor from 7 to 8.

Oh Damn!!!! I was so focused on figuring out out to make the drawing I ran the wire to the wrong place!!! Meant to run to the + side power tube cathode bypass cap. Didn't notice till I opened up the thread this morning. This is what I meant to draw. Is this right?

Better on a drawing using paint program than on the real thing. No explosions here.

Right....

Right....

As always, thanks Bruce and to everyone else who pitched in. This forum is an amazing resource and I appreciate it. Wish I had some expertise to contribute but alas . . .

Hey, if everbody here knew everything, this forum would be pretty damn boring to be sure!!

so this is my modified wiring diagram - does it look right?
