Would it be possible for you do a quick schematic of the changes and store it
in the FILES section of this forum? That way it will be available for others
who might not understand all that

One of the things I didn't like in the 20m proto BITX I'd built
was the presence of audio getting into the IF amp on transmit and IF
noise in to the audio on recieve. I'd gone the route of adding

Re: Pre driver output
Hi,
2mw is very low from the driver. Mine I see nearly 1mw at the output
of the bandpass filter (L1, L1,L3). The driver stage brings that up
to near 300mW on mine. I don't use the IRF510 as the

Hi Milarepa,
based on my measurements, it is only a few mw, so the oposite of
what Allison measured.

Re: Pre driver output
Based on my proto 300mW is correct. If there were 300mV the power
would be about 2mW which is way to little.

BITX PA
Folks
I am working from the (c)2004 circuit on Ashar's web page and have very low
output from PA. I am using cheap general purpose transistors (ME4003) and
changed pre-driver for 2N2222. Better but

Pre driver output
Dear forum,
I have read somewhere from the posting messages that the output of pre
driver should be about 300 mWatts,
but I read from the article it should be about 300 mVolts.
Which is right

Re: need help for vfo
Hi Chris,
Rather than guess at Gautams question it is easy to ask. Saves
giving multiple conflicting answers.
I may add my favorite "cheap" Varactor [tuning] diode is 1n4007

Re: IRF510 on higher voltage?
Hi!
Arv is quite right. Here we also took a similar route. First was the need for a cheap common PSU so we selected a portable BW TV transformer sec abt 20V AC unloaded around 1.25amp. Unreg DC goes

I am assuming that you are using the same size VFO inductor and capacitors as
specified by Farhan. If you are using the original design with the 36V zener
diode as a VFO fine tuning

Hi,
I think the tuning range is found to be to small.
Likely because the tuning capacitor does not have enough capacitance.

Hello,
First the transistor used. The 2n222a or 2n3904 are excellent for
this type VFO.
I have tried to understand what problem you are having. I suspect

Re: need help for IRF540
Hello,
That IRF540 will be very difficult to drive with increasing frequency.
The input will be very reactive and will require a more complex
network to get the needed RF power (and voltage)

Hi Kumar,
The datasheets give the following parameters:

capacitance = 180 pF
IRF540: RDS = 0.077 Ohms; ID(continous) = 28A; max
