I traded for an FT817, it had been loaned to someone who said he could not get it to work after a while... I suspect he messed in the settings, as Q3004/5 are burned (the drivers). And I saw someone said that if you turn the output power up to 10W, the drivers are likely to blow unless you upgrade them.

So... rather than order 4 from RF Parts for $35 with shipping, I ordered 50 from Amazon for $40 with shipping... 2 to 4 weeks.?

How important is it that these be matched? I'll have 50 to sort through, if need be.

My plan is to return it to factory settings before replacing anything. The PCB is a bit burned, but the traces there are pretty short so I'm hoping it doesn't mess with the RF alignment too much.
