10 watt AM linear
I am building a 10 watt linear amplifier for my FT817ND. Currently this puts out about 1.5 watts of amplitude modulation. But this linear amplifier ( built from an old Walford kit ) will boost the power to 10 watts. I am hoping to have some AM QSOs using it on 80 and 160 metres. The linear is currently still on the bench, but it works - you put 1.5 watts in - and lots of power comes out! Because I have little spare time it will take months to complete the project, but I hope it will be on the air by the end of 2014!
