A modulator for providing modulating voltages across the anode and cathode of a negatively pulsed magnetron includes a switch which, when activated, couples the modulating voltage source to the cathode terminal, a current regulator which maintains a constant current flow through the anode and cathode when the modulating voltage is applied, and a voltage control circuit that reduces an excessive time rate of voltage change across the switch caused by arcing across the anode-cathode gap. A filament power supply is provided which supplies filament current while isolating the modulating voltage at the cathode from high voltage sensitive components in the filament power supply.
