Re: BITX40 package size


 

Matt,

Here are possible blown parts since they dont have protection:

Complete BFO & VFO, Q7, 8, 9, 10, 11

Mic amp Q12

If the PA was also connected to the same power then IRF510 final.

Check the Base - emmitter voltage of all transistors from Q7 - Q12

Before testing remove the VFO - Raduino signal from DDS1 jack
Short X5 to disable the oscillator
You will get wrong reading if these stages have RF running.

Good luck

Based on the picture (I don't have the board with me now) it's actually D7 that has blown, not D6.

Apologies for wasting your time!
