It's that mad time of year.
Wanting to move up from my current Metron mobile amp what thoughts on basic layout of a 14v DC powered amp that could run the full legal limit? Would you run say, 16 Toshiba 2SC2879 devices (within their total dissipation specs) to keep IMD halfway reasonable or would you consider an on-board switcher PSU up to say 80-100v to use some more modern FET's. Is this at all feasable? Of course a 'stiff' DC supply is required whichever way you go and the extra few dB in signal is questionable as to whether it's worth all the trouble. I think a Hi-Q antenna would handle the power so that's not a concern. Your thoughts on "Son of Metron". Phil G4ZOW |
