[sci.electronics] Klystrons, klystrodes

dya@unccvax.UUCP (07/12/88)

	I have an application for klystron/klystrode amplification
in the 470-800 mHz band.  Basically, it is a linear power amplifier
with a peak envelope power of 2.0 kw.  The bandwidth is 6.0 mHz.

        Anyone know of those lesser electron tube manufacturers
who might make such a beast?  All the Eimac/Varian and E.E.V.
catalogs seem to have are really large beasts in the 30-55 kw
output range and up.

	It would seem to me that using a klystron/klystrode
(or TWT) would be far simpler than construcing coaxially tuned
cavities for conventional tetrode power tubes.

Thanks...
