Hi Jan,
very interesting project... I also thought already about how to build such an amp... I would try a 4-125A (QB3/300). Max. plate voltage for RF power amplification should not exceed 3 kV (datasheet...), but from its construction its plate can take a lot more.... Max. screen voltage up to 600V, with such high plate potentials I would rather go quite a bit lower, 200-300V. Graphite plate and very rugged construction, so I think this would be a good beginning at least... But how do you plan to realize the plate resistances? Resistors, chokes?
In this way I also operated an EL81 with up to 1,2 kV DC plate voltage (and 70V screen) as a regulator tube for a power supply, which could be set from 800V to 1,2 kV output voltage using an EL519 as pass tube.
If it should be a triode, I would eventually try the former colour TV HV shunt regulator triodes like the PD500..... Maybe two or three of them in parallel?
all the best
Uli
