    Purchased new Texas Star DX1600X

    Can you tell me how that is done? I have had many people give me amazing information on this. Will never be in business with any of those folks that kept me from burning a radio that I care greatly about.

    Boomer 400 RF making 50 amp switching power supply buzz.

    Thank you for the replies. I had an idea something was wonky. Just could not quantify it. There is no crazy heat in the amps. The swr should be an indicator of what LeapFrog mentioned on the anther post. If the swr is below 2 the the reflect could not be that high. Thanks again.

The transistors poked out of the case and in my mind this was the future. At that time 2 separate heat sinks came with...

    Meter question

    Kaos that was the Pandoras box post of the night. I have an MFJ 826B. I thought that would end many questions that I have about various measurements. The MFJ has the capability to"store measurements for 1,2, or 3 seconds on peak." So I also have a Dosy that has a frequency counter and 1khz tone...
