    WTB Amplifier

    I'm looking for an amplifier for use with my QRP rigs. Need about 25 fo 50 watts out, with .5 to 4 watts in, covering 1.8 to 30 MHz.

    If you're into kits, this one would do the job for (looks like) $50.

    Kits are no problem, and really preferred. I have looked at pretty much all I could find, and did check this one out. I went to the site, and at last posting is appears they had some issues with the new release, and went back to the previous one. This isn't a problem, but I am waiting for a reply to an email enquiry with some questions. To be honest, parts are not an issue, and if I can find a quality PCB of a good broadband design, and adequate band pass filtering, I'd pick it up. I just have no desire to etch boards anymore.

    Thanks for the post.

    Look for a used Yaesu FL-110.

    Those are nice little amps, but don't come up too often. Those on Ebay are usually higher than giraffe nuts.

    I finally got ahold of Kees (K5BCQ), and he has some of the original version amps available, as well as the band pass kits. As soon as he gets me a final quote, I will be ordering the amp and BP kits. Since I won't have full use of my left hand for awhile, I am getting both of the BP kits, one you have to wind the toroids, (which I can't d right now) and the other uses chip inductors. I'll post the progress as it happens.
