Would anyone have a copy of QST June 2006 that they could scan the
article about building a homebrew 600 watt amplifier on page 39 or
possibly know of a link where I could download it? Thanks, Rob WB8VWI

the design is a motorola published design. Communications Concepts
also sells parts to make it and has the schematic on their site.

Rob,

IF you desire to build a solid-state RF amplifier -- it will be for
education / build desire -- rather an economics (in other words -- a used
Ameritron/MFJ ALS-600 (with 4 MOSFETs) is often much cheaper.

It is advisable at 500/600 watt and greater -- that 24/28 VDC or 48/50 VDC
RF transistors be used -- lighter gauge wire - less amperage from power
supplies.

Next read all that you can about Helge Granberg, K7ES(sk) -- Finland's
version of Art Collins
who wrote most of the Application Notes for Motorola that all other
designers have used as the baseline for their designs.
