CBS	Doc Doc, Did you see thge post above on 9/22? it kind of got buried in the middle of the post listings. By the way another thought/question in the circuit in Radiotron it appears that you could enhance/control the 2nd harmonic by putting an unbalancing pot in the feed to the second grid. I wonder what kind of voltage rating the pot would need? In the Radiotron they mention increased distortion I assumed ( ya I know) they meant harmonic, but now I'm thinking asymmetric clipping distortion is likely also, what do you think? Thnx, CBS
