Interesting misfortune. A 500w amp remains on my wish list.?
Switching diodes and maybe even transistors are often even more vulnerable when not biased.?
I am thinking try using the leaded parts you have of course with short leads. I built a rig with hundreds of smd parts the nc2030 let's just say it now has a few leaded parts, and not because I dropped any in assembly.?
Best to keep the ubitx unhooked from antennas except when shack is only receiving. Somehow my v4 is alive and well, modified maybe never finished.?
