Octave Bandwidth Tunnel Diode Amplifier

Two tunnel diodes amplifiers were built, one covering 2-3 kmc and the other 3-4 kmc. In each case, the limit on bandwidth was the frequency band of the circulator used with the amplifier. As shown in the photograph below, the amplifiers were combined in a diplexing circuit to make a single two-port...

Summary:Two tunnel diodes amplifiers were built, one covering 2-3 kmc and the other 3-4 kmc. In each case, the limit on bandwidth was the frequency band of the circulator used with the amplifier. As shown in the photograph below, the amplifiers were combined in a diplexing circuit to make a single two-port amplifier with better than I2 db gain over the octave 2-4 kmc.
