8072 Eimac Transmitting Tube (Pull)

This tube is a small low cost conduction cooled beam power type. It is used as an rf power amplifier, oscillator, regulator, distributed amplifier in mobile or fixed equipment at frequencies up to 500 megacycles

Because of its high power sensitivity and high efficiency, the 8072 can be operated with relatively low anode voltage to give large power output with small driving power. In typical operation as a linear RF power amplifier in single sideband, suppressed carrier service, the 8072 is rated for a useful peak power output of 80 watts as measured with two tone modulation. As an anode-modulated RF power amplifier in Class C telephony, it can deliver up to 105 watts of useful output power in a grid drive circuit up to 50 MHz. As an RF power amplifier in Class C telegraphy or FM telephony, the 8072 can deliver up to 110 watts at 50 MHz, 105 watts at 175 MHz and up to 85 watts at 470 MHz.
