The life of a power tube is affected very materially by the filament or heater voltage. Too low a voltage greatly prolongs the life but materially decreases the power output and increases the plate resistance. Too high a volt age does not necessarily improve the operation of the receiver but it does overheat the filament or heater and greatly shortens the life of the tube. Saturday, May 23, 1931.
