1. [Amps] Delicate Transistors....? (score: 1)

Hmmmmm... That's not really the case. There seems to be an idea amongst many amateur amplifier builders that solid-state devices are somehow unreliable and delicate. That's really the opposite of the

If you must go down the tube route, and the possession of a nice new pair of tubes might even make me consider it, a pair of '350s will work well in a W1SL-type amplifier on 144. Get hold of a copy o

Back in the mists of time I built a K2RIW PA for 432MHz. That used a pair of 4CX250BMs in parallel with a reverse airflow system, and would seriously endstop a 1kW Bird slug in class-C without overdi

what's especially good about soldering with a Metcal?< Try one and see Ian! I rarely see Wellers in labs nowadays. I think they use an eddy current heating technique to deliver heat a lot closer to

Since returning to active amateur radio after a break of nearly two decades, I've been a bit saddened to see that many hams seem to be shying away from solid state amplifiers, and investing them with

I don't disagree at all with this. The point I was trying - however ineptly - to make is that solid state technology requires a different approach to traditional tube design. work of to Again, I don

I don't know what designs you are familiar with, but combiner losses don't usually impact significantly on efficiency. That's why they are used in high-efficiency AM BC transmitters... The use of mod

don't In terms of fractional bandwidth BC transmitters covering 500 - 1650kHz aren't narrow-band! Of course BC transmitters are designed for AM, and aren't linear, but there are people using class-D
