Hi all,

Yes, I know you're all out shopping, but I've got a question just the 
same.  I have never seen a good discussion of the desired tube 
characteristics for use in a VFO.  What I -have- seen is just about 
every imaginable tube type used, making me wonder if it matters all 
that much.  So, which is better: triode vs. pentode, sharp-cutoff vs. 
remote cutoff, high gm vs. not-so-high, etc.  I'm about to start 
reading up on VFOs again for a new project, so any other advice is also 
welcomed -- it's been a while since I thought about these things.

73,
Mike, KK6GM
