- How about trying to use RF negative feedback, where some of the output is coupled back to the input in anti-phase? Negative feedback will generally improve the linearity. I've not tried it myself, bu

- I recall a 144MHz design in VHF Communications which showed excellent IMD from (I think) a 4CX1000A running at 750-1000W output. It's a couple of days until I can get near my stuff to look for it -

- Ok, I just took a look at this and see where the problem is. With a resolution bandwidth of 3kHz the 3 order IMD products are masked by the real signal. For example if you should have a 14.2815 MHz s

- The results stack up fairly well with the 144MHz figures form DJ4GC (VHF Communications, 4/85). In Carsten's amp the 5th and 7th order drop off a bit faster. Steve ___________________________________

- One should also bear in mind that the 'professional' point to point ISB links (such few as are left now!) are typically rated at -36dB on PEP for a 2 tone test, so the results look pretty good to me.
