Something made me look up the January 1993 QST review of the OMNI VI and check its transmit IMD stats. The reviewer, Rus Healy, says (p. 67), "As Fig 1 shows, the transmitter's third-order IMD produc

Steve et al: This is known as avoidance--I'm way behind in sending out QSL's, so I'm sitting in front of the computer posting to the Ten-Tec reflector instead . . . It's peculiar that what must be es

That is why I take the tested and published IMD figures with a grain of salt. The Omni Six displayed spectacular IMD figures at 14 MHz and the Omni Six Plus displayed IM distortion some 20 dB worse.

The final amplifier is a very small part of the system. In my IC- 751A's, most of the distortion comes from the driver transistors. In my FT1000D, most of the transmitter composite noise and a notic

Right, Paul. This is another way of approaching the question I posted last week (about which no one has really had anything to say). If the same final amplifier design can vary by that much... it thr

Al raises a valid question, but I think the answer is obvious. Specs are MORE UNIFORM rig to rig, with modern printed circuit robotic assembly than in the days of hand wired tube final rigs. There is

Geesh, it sounds like we are tying to get -80dB IM3 performance. That simply isn't the case! A zero-bias class-C amplifier can do almost as well as some modern radios for IM3 performance. Is it real

snip snip Is zero-bias synonymous with Class C ???? I was under impression that operation of Class C required the amplifying device to be biased beyond cutoff allowing conduction for a portion less t

My main point is that very sloppy amplifier designs can make IM3 specs close to what some modern radio's produce. Surely designers can do better than they are! -35dB referenced to a single tone would

You bet they could do better! Many hams have no idea what these figures mean or that poor performance here results in more splatter. When told about it they blithely say "QST liked it" or "it is FCC
