Re: The Daylight Again - An All analog radio
Ken, The radio is all point-to-point soldering and large sized components. The performance will suffer it built on a single pcb. I guess someone can try it. The radio needs improvements, it needs cw

Re: The Daylight Again - An All analog radio
What a neat little radio, thanks for sharing. Something like that, if it could be kitted out at $50 or so would make a great club project, but kiting up such a project is way beyond my skill set. I

The Daylight Again - An All analog radio
I had presented an all analog radio at the FDIM this year (not the expected sBitx!). It is a fun radio. No, this will not have kit, you are on your own. The write up is now up on my website at

Re: A short video of sBitx working
You forgot the Christmas transmission. My son and I visited the site a few weeks ago. The transmitter is started several times during the year. The signals go into a very big dummy load. de 0z9ny,

Re: sBitx antenna-first warning
Here is one of many posts from Allison that are worth reviewing, mentions the 6m 225W power amp she built using 4+4 IRF510's in push-pull. The whole thread is worth a read.

Alan, I like the idea of the solar system but I am also rebuilding my 12-inch Dobsonian telescope with a lot of space imagery and I think my XYL may object to more space stuff in the house. Although I

I also use the quad shield with good results up to about the 800watt level... if everything is right (no sharp bends anywhere) it works just fine. Otherwise I have melted and spectacular flash arc

Re: sBitx antenna-first warning
We've tested the T41 with its 510s to 40W and nothing fried. 80-40-20M all can deliver about 25W without much effort. 15M is about 20W and 10M drops to about 13W. Like I said, it is what it is...

Re: sBitx antenna-first warning
The IRF510 can work dependably, Allison reports years of success with HF amps at 40W push-pull, surviving everything from accidental open antenna connections to dead shorts. In posts to this forum

Re: sBitx antenna-first warning
Interesting discussion. Just a few very quick thoughts I think that you have to consider the average of the input power to consider the input impedance of the power device as the instantaneous power
