RE: apparently amplifier tests conducted by the military

Some interesting tidbits in that file...

"Practically all Williamson amplifiers tested showed a tendency to "ring" at about two or three cycles. This tendency was eliminated in all cases by changing the values of the coupling capacitance in the grid circuit of the output tubes from 0.25 mfd to about 0.02 mfd. The low-frequency response was not in any case seriously affected by this change"

Don't know if I've ever looked for ringing at such a low frequency. I wonder if it's an anomaly of the power supply...
