BBI using eBay LDMOS Boards?
- Thread starter LeapFrog
- Start date
I am pretty sure they are the ones off eBay LeapFrog. That is why they are sprayed so no one knows LOL!!! He then will tell you that he created all of it and take all the credit for it!! Wouldn't want one of his amps for free!!!
BBI= Biggest Bullshiter in Idaho!!

fairly old news now leapy..
yes it is the urkaine board however other than him claiming he built it and recenty him claiming he got them from china after being called out on it on other forums and facebook
(why would anyone buy it from china when you can buy direct off the man in the former soviet block?)
he is doing nothing wrong apart from telling fibs ..
you pay for product you get product .
manufactors buy other manufactors boards all the time and repack them look at chev and ford ...bits made by other manufactors in both breeds of car/truck (hate me all you like but its true)
if i brought one the only thing that would annoy me is the fact hes made it unrepairable with that black crap on it
never could understand that luke guy ..dude spends too much time on the "bowel "
anyone ask the owner if it actually has the copper plate between the final and heatsink or did he cheap out and just buy the board without it ?
now now CK hes just misunderstood

Notwithstanding BBI's little trick. LDMOS technology looks good. You can get a 60 volt battery at Home Depot for Dewalt power tools. What is the problem with LDMOS??
Not problems at all with them. Very high gain devices so no need for a driver. They aren't forgiving to builder errors and bad circuit design like the bipolar transistors are. You can not overdrive them or they will die in a split second .
BBI pretended to design something and covered it with crap to hide it. The major problem with that is if and when a component fails. The whole board will have to be replaced and if they are no longer available you're screwed.
If LDMOS worked good, everyone would jump on that bandwagon to replace the inevitable demise of the bi polar design. Why isn't this the future?
Looking at BBI website, the LDMOS amps are expensive no matter how you slice it. Unless they last for decades, it may not be the way to go. Or, can one be made that can compete on a watt by watt basis?
It IS the future. CB amplifier builders simply have not caught on too it yet as they are still stuck in trying to beat the snot out of bipolar devices. You simply CANNOT abuse LDMOS devices like you can a 2SC2879. Then again every amplifier manufacturer outside of CB-land does NOT abuse the amplifier devices and uses them within design limits. Try squeezing 600-700 watts out of a 500 watt LDMOS device and you will have an expensive doorstop. Run that 500 watt device at 400-500 watts and it will last a lifetime.
So ldmos is a potential goldmine for a smart businessman who knows how to manufacture and sell amps to CBrs.
