I realized this morning after coffee I made an error in my quick Spice model of the 16:1 transformer. The phase shifts due to magnetizing inductance are indeed smaller using a 10X factor than I quote

I worked the DX0 station at 1300 Zulu this a.m. on 1828 up 2. A35 also showed up this morning at the same time on 1820.3... Neither was really strong but Q5 at the time. Both peaked here with the sun

Mike W4EF, well done on the analysis of the W7IUV preamp and very informative. I also calculated nearly the same numbers indicating a need for more heat sink or less current etc. Also do not forget t

Wow. Larry thanks for all you have done with these amps. No one ever meant any of this to be personal, or to imply your amp does not work for amateurs as designed. As for the bottom line if your heat

As a substitute for the 2N5160 you might look at the specs on the MRF545. I have never tried this transistor so YMMV. RF parts has them for a little over $4 each. If my memory is correct the MRF544 i

I worked the FK8CP station on 2-16-2007 at 1332 zulu. He seems to be showing up regularly as I heard him both before and after this time. Be prepared to send CW very slowly. I also found that he hear

The 160 band was as quiet this morning as I can ever recall in the Ja/Ua0 direction. I ran across a series of stations at 1818.15, 1814.5,1813.25, and 1811.6. These were not the usual fishing beacons

Same here in central Oregon Guys. I took the last of my RX antennas down yesterday so we can plant potatoes to help feed the rest of the world. As I was removing the 8 element RX phased array I was t

At W7LR we are working on a 5 element rectangular array that "fires" in 6 different directions and not a 4 square. This antenna hopefully will provide Bob a maximum RDF for the environmental conditio
