Gee in one picture I think I can see a Radio Moscow sticker (In Cyrilic script of course).
and a serial "Woodpecker #3". But my eyes aren't what they used to be. With this dude
you could save on gas or fuel oil in the winter with the filaments on.
Such a deal

Dinky pi network unless it's 11M :-)
Put enough 3-500Z's in parallel and the combined plate impedance will be low enough that you won't need a pi network to drive 50 ohms!!!!

I just checked my bank account and then lost my breakfast...hi hi.
Too bad Eimac couldn't have put in a self-destruct circuit in at the base of the tube (inside the glass envelope) so that anytime "breaker 19" was modulated, the tubes would explode.
I'll bet they could do it today with micro SMT technology!

Unless there's more to that amp than is shown, I'd think the filament pins would all unsolder themselves with any kind of use, as I don't see any air flow cooling them under the sockets...

That will definitely break up a pile up . . . . but you need a 440 volt line to power it !

is that IHF watts?

Can anyone guess what would be the max power?
The transformer with the tubes is probably for filament. Perhaps 45V and 15A, for some 700W of heating all the time. The other transformer is massive but subject to the limit of 240V line.
Also, if its grounded grid, it needs lots of drive.

Seriously here in VK land we can not afford the electricity necessary to run one of these let alone stay within our output power limit.
