Any radio, export or not, is subject to producing unwanted signals when modified incorrectly. That means you can't expect miraculous power increases with only changing a part or two or clipping something. There are definite limits and pushing those limits always produces garbage. So don't expect something for nothing.
There are NO standards for export radios or for 'CB' amplifiers. There are no 'purity' requirements and never have been. Expecting 'standards' for 'purity'/'clean' 'CB' amplifiers is a joke. There are no 'secrets' about building good amplifier, the various transistor and tube manufacturers give specs for their products, and with a little knowledge about what those specs are and common amplifier circuits, producing a good amplifier shouldn't be difficult at all. But there won't be as much profit if it's done right. There's the 'catch', profits. Draw your own conclusions, but try to be a little realistic about it.

[QUOTE="W5LZ, post: 383031, member: 129"] Any radio, export or not, is subject to producing unwanted signals when modified incorrectly. That means you can't expect miraculous power increases with only changing a part or two or clipping something. There are definite limits and pushing those limits always produces garbage. So don't expect something for nothing. There are NO standards for export radios or for 'CB' amplifiers. There are no 'purity' requirements and never have been. Expecting 'standards' for 'purity'/'clean' 'CB' amplifiers is a joke. There are no 'secrets' about building good amplifier, the various transistor and tube manufacturers give specs for their products, and with a little knowledge about what those specs are and common amplifier circuits, producing a good amplifier shouldn't be difficult at all. But there won't be as much profit if it's done right. There's the 'catch', profits. Draw your own conclusions, but try to be a little realistic about it. - 'Doc Psst - All those 'cures' you see/read about are to clean up a dirty product. [/QUOTE]
