Re: RF power chain mods and improvements..


 

That looks very promising!
Looking forward to seeing where this comes out.

A few obvious observations:

The BFR106@1000 is $0.10, the 2n5109 @ 1000 in a to-39 from Central Semi is $1.50.
Those seem excellent choices if they work.
Looking like these fixes to the uBitx might get done for around $5-$10 more in parts cost, no board changes.

That 2n5109? is cheaper than two of the 2n2222a's in a to-18.
Though the?DXT2222A-13? in a SOT-89-3? can be had for $0.10 @ 1000
Central Semi has a 2n5109ub in surface mount, they claim it dissipates a Watt, can't find a price.?

I'm fine if it comes to a fourth stage on a small daughterboard placed between T8-5 and RV1.
if that makes upgrading old boards easier.? (I know, broken record.)

Weird that my search of post??/g/BITX20/message/51550??didn't find any of these higher Ft NPN's.
Either the Mouser parameterized search tool is not very reliable, or me.
