    Your ohm meter? Is this with bias resistors in or out of circuit? Measure B-E out of circuit?

    What's your favorite multimeter?

    My 30 year old Fluke 75 II. It is my bench meter, because it tests semi's better than my newer Fluke meters. Also measures up to 300mA, unlike one of my newer Fluke's. I would miss it dearly if it ever departs.

    Scary Anomaly

    I have my own share of power line RFI. I have used a homebrew loop, 2m Yagi, UHF Yagi, whip, attenuators and a few receivers. This thing here, was a game changer for me. https://sites.google.com/site/portableflagantenna/ The reason is, this antenna is unidirectional, vs. the loop, that is...

    This is not the case. Send is nothing more than a key line to ground, when the radio is in TX. It is not brand specific. The only thing of concern, is the keying voltage of the amps T/R relay, which may exceed the T/R relay or send circuit of the radio, which s why there are amplifier buffers.

    ALC and send, have nothing to do with each other. Send will key the amp.

    HR2510 final, from MRF477 to 2sc1969

    I have done it on a Jackson as well. FYI, the original article you linked to by ashtec, has errors. I did this first with IRF530, then IRFZ44. The measured power out from IRF530 is in my post on there. The power out with IRFZ44 is almost the same as MRF477. Perhaps slightly lower on SSB, but...

    What is your favorite Ham or CB Radio of all time?

    My favorite radio(s) of all time, are the Icom IC-735. It was my first synthesized HF radio, that blew my mind as to how much better it was than some of the other clunkers I had before it. It is built to take a beating, and it did. It traveled with me on the road, got killed by an airline and...

    ok i gotta ask about this heathkit sb220

    Have you tried running into a dummy load? If I were going to troubleshoot, I would look at input VSWR on 20m, bandswitch, plate choke first.

    HR2510 final, from MRF477 to 2sc1969

    I have been successful enough, going from MRF477 to MOSFET. Power output was close enough for my liking.

    This is the 3 band 02A PTBM125A4X Cybernet board, with a single device amp bolted to the rear. All I was able to locate, was minus the amp board, that I need to see. Thanks, SL

    Found me a Kraco radio

    I thought they were uglier than the other offerings that were made by Cybernet at that time. For whatever reason, I don't find them less appealing now. But they worked every bit as good as any of them. I had a 23 channel AM mobile, that used the 02A PLL. I installed the 40 CH retrofit that...
