Re: Modular BiTX40
Wow, that's fascinating. I've had a similar idea rattling around in my head, about designing a uBitx with experimenters in mind. I was thinking of using a single board but with each block isolated and

Static risk?
Hi all, just joined the group and now have the latest bitx40v3 reading to install. Now it's been a long time since i built anything ( C.M.Howes 80m rx) so I was wondering if I have to consider static

Raduino as NBFM TX
By adding a couple of components, the Raduino can become a very stable NBFM transmitter. I just blogged my build : http://bitxhacks.blogspot.in/2017/10/raduino-as-nbfm-tx.html This will work equally

Modular BiTX40
Just a heads up on a modular build of the BiTX40.? If you haven't seen it, a young ham in Belgium (ON6RF) laid out a set of pc boards to build a modular version of the BiTX and placed the project on

Re: Multiband bitx G6LBQ links
Jerry: I wouldn't be so quick to defend the IRFxxx series. Remember, these were designed to be switching transistors working at about 500 KHz. Yes, they can be adapted to RF with great success, but,

Re: question on fuse amparage
I have a fast acting 4A with a Diode to ground directly after it.? A 1N4002 or so will do it. I found a small fuse with leads, so no socket was necessary. I have been lucky so far, no blown fuse. --

Re: Multiband bitx G6LBQ links
I believe that is plain normal gain loss as frequency rises, it is a cheap switching mosfet, not an HF rated device. I just used two amps after it to some 400 on 40, and 100 w on 10 m.

Re: Multiband bitx G6LBQ links
A simple substitute of the RD15HVF1 for the IRF510 (different pin-out!) makes the rf amp capable of at least 30 MHz. The IRF510 becomes very inefficient over about 20 MHz. Dr. William J. Schmidt -
