Re: Latest from MPJA ,... including Pack of 10- IRF510 N Channel FET Transistor 100V output transistors
If building a test jig for evaluation of IRF510 devices, maybe we do not have to test for actual performance of no-name or other-name devices. If the test jig were first used to evaluate a known good

Re: QUESTION - is it possible to get a TX output of CW in A1A?
An answer for everyone! Thank you all for the answers and for the small scheme that will allow me to add the CW transmission in A1A also in the EASY BITX that I am assembling, without resorting to

Re: QUESTION - is it possible to get a TX output of CW in A1A?
Loris A mixer inherently needs ac signals on 2 ports to produce an output. If we inject dc, it can bias the diodes, if enough turning them steadily on, so it can't mix anymore. Ubitx does this,

Re: QUESTION - is it possible to get a TX output of CW in A1A?
A keyed audio oscillator can work, but the oscillator and mike amp must feed a clean sine wave at the correct level into the modulator to get a clean CW signal. Far simpler to add a resistor from the

Why not use a keyed audio oscillator with suitable level adjustment at the mic input?

Re: Latest from MPJA ,... including Pack of 10- IRF510 N Channel FET Transistor 100V output transistors
Shirley is right, Vishay bought IR. My story about the WA2EBY amp not working well at first with some non-IR IRF510 is vaguely mis-remembered.

It is the economy of scale that kicks in with hf signals. It works out to be cheaper than the bill of materials! The way to keep the price under $100 is to build it the ugly way. You can always

QUESTION - is it possible to get a TX output of CW in A1A?
I ask to the most experienceds of me in the use of MIXERS: if I inject a direct voltage (eg 1Vdc) to the BF input of the modulation mixer, is it possible that the BFO frequency comes out unmodulated?
