Re: [Flexradio] 6 meter revisited

I built a 6m amp based on the design found at the following link. 
http://www.nr6ca.org/50mhzamp.html
It needs 24 V and gives a solid 80 watts.
Built it with parts found in the "old box". Only had to buy the transistor 
at RF parts.

[Flexradio] 6 meter revisited

2007-05-21 Thread Mark Amos
Flexers,

The recent 10 meter band openings got me thinking again about 6 meters.
I've made some 6 meter simplex contacts with a mobile FM 6 meter rig but I
would like to use the FlexRadio in the shack to do more - some sideband
and/or maybe some CW on 6.

I've built a little pre-amp (a DEMI kit) for receiving and it works well.
But I still only have a half a watt out and I'd really like to be able to
put 10 watts or so into the antenna.

I've seen a couple of queries to the list regarding small 6 meter amps, but
I don't believe I've ever seen a response to one of them.  I'm saving my
pennies for a SDR5K and really don't want to shell out $500+ for a 6 meter
amp.

Anyone know of a low-power kit that's available (a club project or some
such) that would fit this, admittedly small, niche need?

Other thoughts or recommendations?

Mark
