The military and consumer electronics that I worked on all used heat sink compound to increase the efficiency of heat to the heat sink. It sure wouldn’t hurt and might help if used with the IRF510.
When I swapped out the IRF510 in my first Bitx I noticed that they didn't use and heat sink paste so I'm guessing that the new one is the same way.? Has anyone added heat sink paste or is it really even necessary when running the radio at 12V?
