@rdaily A linear amp, in which high voltage bleed resistors might have failed in an open state?

An aside: I admire that #HamRadio includes so many potentially dangerous, if not always lethal, activities.

Even #OliverHeaviside (who should be the #PatronSaint of hams and of real EEs) died of complications from falling off a ladder.

Je ĉi dato en 1850 naskiĝis Oliver Heaviside, fizikisto, kiu simpligis la ekvaciojn de Maxwell en la vektoran formon, kiun ni nun scias, kaj antaŭdiris la ĉeesto de jonigita tavolo super la atmosfero, kiu ebligas la transmetadon de signaloj preter la horizonton. https://eo.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oliver_Heaviside

Oliver Heaviside changed the face of telecommunications, mathematics, and science in the early 1900s, yet few have ever heard of him https://gadgeteer.co.za/oliver-heaviside-changed-the-face-of-telecommunications-mathematics-and-science-in-the-early-1900s-yet-few-have-ever-heard-of-him/
