Re: boosting the power on 28 MHz #ubitx


 

I just put mine at the base of T11 but there are many ways of doing it depending the type of part you use... I also replaced T11 but let's not go there yet.

How do you recommend doing that? A disc ceramic between IRF510 pins?
Can you get an smd cap between the pins on the bottom of the ckt board?

Did you try putting about 330pf across the primary of T11 (PA output
transformer). That will make a big difference...

Allison I tried the 220pf cap on RV1 and didn¡¯t see any gain at 28
MHZ. I also tried removing the feedback resistors in the finals
suggested by Farhan without any gain. What I also have done was the
capacitor/choke mod suggested by Howard for the driver stages and that
has worked. With RV1 set to 10 watts on 40 meters I now get about 2.5
watts on 28 MHZ up from the 1.25 - 1.5 watts before. I also see about
8 or 9 watts on 20 meters. I¡¯m running Ian¡¯s firmware I think version
1.06 something.
