I started this with a Heathkit SB-221 chassis.
You can see from the pics where I started, and now countless hours since my Christmas vacation. The project is working!
My homebrew KW+ 6 meter amplifier is born.
60 watts drive equals 1000w PEP on SSB.
She will key down legal limit with 100 watts drive!
Pair of 3-500z EIMAC tubes @ 3150 vdc at 750 mA plate current.
CK/Warren/Crusher/Shockwave...I still have and issue with output at full 100w drive. I am getting audio distortion. I am guessing my limited experience with VHF building, my coax routing or orientation is the cause.
HEY it's clean at 1000 watts, why sweet blood over 4-500 more!!!!
Nobody will know the difference! Yes swing watchers NOBODY!
So if you see anything that jumps out at you, let me know. When I decide to give it a custom paint job I may make the changes.
Come on F2 and Eskip ! CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW!....ADD 13 dbi at 45 ft....
All the Best
