    11 meter is very quiet?

    It was good again this morning open to the east coast, from Florida all the way up to Nova Scotia. It was a mess on the 35-40 channels, but by just ignoring the clowns you can still pick out good contacts if you work at it. It was much easier to ask them to go up to .400 there you don't have to...

    "Messenger M4V" for those that might know ?

    The diodes that contact the heat sink help with this as the diode heats up it helps reduce thermal runaway. The Messanger amps were know for being biased hard to start with. 73 Jeff

    Amazon? eBay? Temu? AliExpress?... which one are you using the most?

    75% Amazon, 25 other. The thing I like about Amazon is free shipping and hassle free returns. I have grabbed stuff off of Temu they are ok for stuff that you know is going to be cheap, and like Cable said,good to gut for parts. 73 Jeff

    On my 500 I have a separate positive wires to each two transistor board to feed them. On the 8 transistor amps that would be 4 positive feeds, one for each 2 transistor board in the amp. And the crappy fuse holders get bypassed, directly feeding the amp from the batteries. 73 Jeff
