RE: 485V Regulated Power Supply - Schematic Please

The 8068 has pretty amazing specs, 35W, 3.5KV @ 100ma ratings. A 6BG6GA won't come close.

I vaguely recall Eric Barbour commenting that Kepco had approached Svetlana about tooling up for a run of 8068 type tubes but apparently they never came up with an agreement.

It's sad, Kepco made some beautiful equipment (still does) and their tube power supplies were fantastic.

Probably the closest tube available today would be an EL509/EL519 I'd guess.
