Just stick the plug in and check with an ohmmeter. Dan

Re: the cause for the spurs, found!
Would adding the LPF as specified by Farhan provide approximately the same output power, something more than 10w at least on the lower bands?

Re: the cause for the spurs, found!
Just happened to have this little can which fits over the 45Mhz area.?? Or perhaps even more area needs to be shielded. If that actually works.

Raj, sorry, i didn't take in the detail of your previous post in this thread. I guess you tried shielding etc of the stages. glenn

Re: the cause for the spurs, found!
Glen, That was the first thing I did was try a pad instead of filter. But that did not help. It is the sane as reducing the mic drive. The filter helps to get rid of non IF signals (Harmonics) picked

Re: the cause for the spurs, found!
What is the expected level into the Tx bi-amp stage at 45MHz? I don¡¯t have a feel for this and can¡¯t check it as my uBITX is in pieces at present. If it's a relatively high level then the 45Mhz

Re: the cause for the spurs, found!
The BFR106 parts will work pretty well, but I¡¯ve used the ERA/MAR/GALI series of MMIC successfully there too with just a little circuit modification. Some tend to be very low noise factor. Sent:

Re: the cause for the spurs, found!
With better gain, you can afford more negative feedback to reduce distortion

Re: the cause for the spurs, found!
I thought we needed better linearity here to reduce distortion, not improved response ?

Re: PSK31 ghosts below my signal
Ideally you'd use a scope. The crud is close enough in to your suppressed carrier you'd be able to hear it on a SSB receiver by zero beating the carrier that is leaking. It appears you should hear it

Re: Si5351 correction question
Forgot to state that that¡¯s 15 MHz WWV. It¡¯s been about an hour and a half now ant the temp has stabilized at 96F (35.5C) with drift at 90 Hz. Using WWV and WSJT-X is also a good way to visually

Re: Si5351 correction question
Assuming you're still at 14mhz, that's a 1e6 * 74hz/14mhz = 5.3ppm change over a 92F-79F = 13 degree F temp change. So 5.3/13 = 0.41 ppm frequency shift per degree F change in temperature.

Re: the cause for the spurs, found!
Farhan, For the 45mhz amp the only part suggested was BFR106 or maybe 2n2369/mmbt2369. I'd not use 2n2222 there but its better than 3904.? Any suggestion of of 2n2222A would have been in the power
