Sure thing, Chris. Simulation at 25 ohms (2:1 SWR) shows each BS170 dissipating about half a watt, so there is some margin. JZ <chrisrey1@...> wrote:

Farnsworth! I'm in a Morse class right now, and we're learning characters at 25 WPM timing, and 5 WPM spacing. That timing is a little bewildering to me, because I learned code 30 years ago at 20

On the subject of heat, the ProgRock2 gets very hot...too hot to touch. Is this usual?

I'll second the use of an absorptive bridge - about no contact with high mismatch that way. Just don't go and leave it in the "tune" position and wonder why the replies are very few and spaced out

Jerry, The diodes in the QMX schematic are Zeners, NOT 1n4148.? Also, the single 1n4148 for the QDX protection is across L14, the RF choke that feeds power to the finals.? My simulations have shown

John Z Thanks for your response. Looks like steady state SWR of 3 will heat the BS170s to their PD limit, so I *assume* SWR <2 is OK. Transients from an auto tuner that can be as high as SWR of 10

Matched antenna sounds good, but I (and a lot of others) use temporary antennas in portable settings. I just activated in a national park yesterday and there was no way to put up a matched antenna.

John, If you decide to test IC5, I would strongly suggest that you remove the BS170s and reduce the supplied voltage to 7 volts.? While trying to do that diagnostic, I destroyed the processor on a

It is very tempting to use RD-16 transistors, but how to create the necessary bias on the gates without complicating the circuit? With a direct replacement as for IRF-510, the RD-16 transistors will

Albert, good on you for using the QRP Labs rigs for this. I suggested as much a couple of days ago in a LICW post where the OP was asking for ideas for a code oscillator. Why bother when you can build

Bad usb lead. Now working.

Hello, When I plug the board in to my win10 pc and go to device manager I can't see it in the list of com ports, also the board gets very hot. Any ideas gratefully received! Regards, Roger.

And one more to change the subject line and start a whole new thread. Andre

That'll work. Jim wrote:
