The operating current and diode temperatures of the 70 W amplifier were adjusted to improve the output of the pre-modecleaner. The first two plots show the increase in diode temperatures and the corresponding increase in pre-modecleaner transmitted power. The third plot shows the pre-modecleaner transmitted power and reflected power over the same time period. The fourth and fifth plots show the output of the 70 W amplifier as the diode temperatures and diode currents were manipulated. Whilst the diode temperatures and currents were varied, the output of the 70 W amplifier did not vary appreciably. The pre-modecleaner output increased by ~2 W and the reflected power decreased by ~1 W. With the diode current and temperature tunings, the output mode of the 70 W amplifier is better matched to the pre-modecleaner and didn't not significantly affect the output power of the amplifier.
