Patrick Turner SE32? Anyone has built one??

This site is one of those valuable resources that is not so actively managed anymore, so I took the precaution to copy the entire site using a site copying tool. I can check which one, if anyone is interested.

Maybe there is a case for someone like DiyAudio to become custodians of these sites created by the people who worked their whole lives with tubes.

John's Radio Web lost its owner this year, and other sites have to be sourced from archive sites, if you know where to look in the first place.
 
WRT Patrick's website, my IT guru says all of Patrick's webpages are ok, however the webserver he uses inserts some malicious redirect code in to 404 type responses. The hosting service should be able to clean that up. It would seem that different browsers and PC's react differently to the webserver's responses, as my Chrome browser shows no issue with good or incorrect links to the website.
 
The 13E1 is a rather pricey little bottle. If you have some around and you feel confident that you can get the appropriate output transformer wound, I would say go for it! Whether that build is amazing or an oscillating mess will depend enormously on the OT.

Turner is a guy with the smarts to sort out any of the many potential problems with a design like this.

Not having the experience he does, I have opted for simpler approaches that sidestep problems that he tackled. I wouldn't attempt to copy this design myself. Too unique and too much risk I'd pay $$$ for parts that would end up being unsuitable.

Still, I love that he built it and shared it with the world.
