Ever seen a klystrode?


And you need to know why?



Then that's a NO.

The Klystrode 'was' the replacement for Klystrons in UHF TV
transmitters, but was short lived because new designs switched to all
solid state. They were more efficient than the Klystron, and cut the
electric bill by thousands of dollars a month. A technology between
the two tubes was to add a 'Pulser' to a Klystron to lower the electric
bill.
