This worksheet will give the design of in-line cavity resonator used in my oscillator 45-years ago. The tube was 5893-pencil type or 2C40-lighthouse type. At that time there was no Mathcad available and it shows the difficulties in calculations without Mathcad. Later designs were based on microwave semiconductors based on Y/S parameters or Bessel functions for low phase noise. Enjoy reading.

Fine!

But why do you not use units. Now (45 years ego) we can do it! With Mathcad!
