This document details the design and construction of the PA70H, a 50-watt RF amplifier for the 70MHz (4-meter) amateur radio band. Built around the Mitsubishi RD70HVF1 MOSFET transistor, the amplifier delivers 45-55W output with 3-5W input power while operating on 13.8V DC at approximately 7-8A. The PCB design incorporates multiple protection circuits including overcurrent, SWR, and temperature control. The amplifier features various control modes including GND PTT, +13.8V PTT, and RF VOX. Two versions are available: PA70HLI (requiring 100mW input with additional driver) and PA70H (for 3-5W input). The comprehensive documentation includes circuit diagrams, assembly instructions, and performance data showing successful operation from both 100mW and 3.5W input sources.

The DX FT8 is a compact, multiband tablet transceiver designed for FT8 digital mode enthusiasts. Supporting five or seven HF bands, it integrates an STM32F746-based touchscreen interface for standalone operation, eliminating the need for a PC. The latest firmware (v1.9.2) adds SOTA/POTA calling and free-text messaging. Its efficient power design, unique RF amplifier, and 3D-printed case enhance portability. Open-source firmware and community-driven development make it a versatile choice for portable FT8 operation, ideal for SOTA, POTA, and travel use. DX FT8 TRANSCEIVER PROJECT is a collaboration between Charles(Charley)Hill, W5BAA and Barbaros(Barb)Asuroglu, WB2CBA.

Integrating a _Software Defined Radio_ (SDR) into an existing ham radio setup involves connecting it with a standard transceiver (TRX), power amplifier (PA), and antennas. The core component is a splitter box that facilitates the connection between the TRX and the SDR, allowing for simultaneous operation without modifying existing equipment. In receive mode, the splitter ties the antenna inputs of both the TRX and a direct conversion receiver (DC RX) together. During transmission, the DC RX input is grounded via a fast telecom relay controlled by the transceiver's -SEND signal, incorporating a 10ms delay for safety. The splitter box includes a 3.7 dB input attenuator for impedance matching and acts as a protective fuse for the DC RX input. Ground loops are mitigated using common mode balun transformers, while the DC RX input is insulated with a broadband transformer. An audio switch box complements the setup, enabling users to listen to either the main transceiver, the SDR output, or both simultaneously. This configuration ensures noise immunity and safety, with the splitter housed in a screened box made from PCB material. On-air tests, such as the CQ WW 160m CW DX Contest, demonstrate the system's effectiveness, showcasing the SDR's ability to handle crowded band conditions with superior selectivity and dynamic range. The SDR's narrow bandwidth filters and waterfall display provide significant advantages, allowing operators to detect weak signals amidst strong interference. The integration of SDR with conventional radios offers enhanced operational flexibility and performance in challenging environments.
