Re: Possible PA low output problem.

No, there have been no foreign distribution or printing rights, but I'm not surprised. Still, if you have the site name, send it to me and I'll pass it along to the publisher. Any more, there are so many torrent sites that make my books available free, you can no longer make any money at it. I make about enough each month to let me Supersize my meal. You have to write because you enjoy it.

Still, I appreciate the notice!

Went to the Chinese site and notice they are selling your book for $2.21. ?I suspect China is not sending you a royalty check.

If thinking about getting a scope, you could do far worse than investing a little time to read up on this blog
I bought a Tekway DST1102B back in 2011 and followed the instructions on the blog to get from 100 MHz to 200 MHz just by software change. I felt very pleased with myself until I later discovered that I could have achieved very similar results? by performing the software conversion on the still cheaper 60 MHz version.
Still, 7 years on, I'm happy with my scope.

I am going to keep working at it until I am sure it is working as good as it can. And do as many hacks as the hardware will stand. And learn all about it in the process. Actually work for a contact, and achieve it. This is what I like most about amateur radio. When I bought a MFJ-9240 cw transceiver I got board with it because there is no work involved with a boxed radio. I know I am getting behind with operating skills. But if I can bring a dead boxed radio radio back to life, I'll have a nice zombie station. And still have the money to spend on something that can't be made, or repaired. And I got the patience to do it.
Now, how helpful would an oscilloscope be at this point with the Bitx 40? I haven't needed it yet. I have only been into electronics 2+ years, and amateur radio 1+ year. And I will be checking into those easy to make tools Jerry has been talking about.
For those who wonder about the power supply. Power is what I started with, and I have plenty of beefy options, linear and switching regulators, and fuses. What I am using now is from a lcd monitor. A switching power adapter at 12.6V 4A that doesn't dip under load. And no line noise at these frequencies.?
Yea, I can't recommend this product for any other beginner. Just hams who already have working radios and like to tinker.
