(under the class definition) Subject matter wherein the source of electrical energy which is controlled by the electrical signal is an A.C. electrical source, which is applied as an A.C. power supply directly to an electrode without any intervening rectifiers to rectify the A.C. electrical supply.
(1) Note. Special types of amplifiers are classified above and subject matter involving unrectified A.C. as a power
supply would be classified with the special type of amplifier and not herein. The amplifiers having general vacuum tube amplifying devices with this feature are classified herein.
