In September 1942, he returned to Melbourne as the officer in charge of the Radar Research Laboratory, where he continued the development of cavity magnetrons and reflex klystrons for radar sets.

Western Union Telegraph Company also built point-to-point microwave communication links using intermediate repeater stations at about 40 mile intervals at that time, using 2K25 reflex klystrons in both the transmitters and receivers.

The reflex klystron ( also known as a Sutton tube after one of its inventors, Robert Sutton ) was a low power klystron tube with a single cavity, which functioned as an oscillator.

The electronic tuning range of the reflex klystron is usually referred to as the variation in frequency between half power points & mdash; the points in the oscillating mode where the power output is half the maximum output in the mode.

In September 1942 he returned to the University of Melbourne as the officer in charge of the Radar Research Laboratory, an outpost of the Radiophysics Laboratory, where his task was turning his cavity magnetrons and reflex klystrons from prototypes into production models.

The reflex klystron ( as it was later called ) had just been developed by Nikolay Devyatkov . Using this, design was started on a set designated " Gneis " ( Origin ) and operating at 16 cm ( 1.8 GHz ).

A remarkably wide variety of tube and similar sockets is listed and described, with some informal application notes, at a commercial site, Pacific T . V ., including nuvistor, 8-pin subminiature, vidicon, reflex klystron, nine-pin octal-like, 10-pin miniature ( two types ), 11-pin sub-magnal, diheptal 14-pin, and many display tubes such as Nixies and vacuum fluorescent types ( and even more ).
