Phil's design of a valve FM pulse counting tuner using safe 25 volt HT line

sounds pretty damn good! I'm also thinking of building an FM reciever now that I'm getting bored building valve amps. I have two headphone valve amps so far and one 10W class A stereo amp for speaker use.

AWESOME!! i found you by coincident when i was looking for tube stereo decoders. I plan to build a tube heterodyne FM but now i found your website. With your consent i will build this radio? thanks for the many accurate details and huge amount of good information!

Thank for your VDO .I can not see any IF & Out Put Transformer.

@thawatchaie This type of FM tuner does not need any IF transformers, the reason being because of its low IF of 250 KHZ and in that case resistance coupled amplifiers can be used which is the great advantages of building this type of receiver. Also because at the time of composing this video it was linked to my EL84 power amplifier and as you may not see the output transformers, thay are underneath the chassis.
