Infomration schematics and pictures about various hf and vhf QRO linear amplifiers

Italian page including pictures schematics diagrams of an home made linear amplifier using four EL509 in parallel. Output power is about 700W.

VU2RAR basic VHF power amplifier suitable for 144-146 Mhz output power can vary from 3 to 25 Watts.

A 400 W 144 MHz GI7b Linear amplifier

There is not a personal design on this page, just I've transfered useful notes from PHILIPS RF Bipolar Transistors - Data HandBook about BLY89C VHF Power transistor, which is very popular among Amateur Radio homebrewers

Demonstrates the construction of a high-power 6-meter (50 MHz) amplifier, specifically designed for demanding modes like EME, TEP, and multiskip Es. It details the use of a _GU-43B_ tetrode in a grounded-cathode configuration, emphasizing the need for stabilized grid voltage and input capacitance compensation. The resource provides a comprehensive schematic, power supply design, and practical considerations for component sourcing, particularly for high-voltage and high-current sections. The builder achieved an output power of **1250 watts** with an anode current of 0.65 amperes and 3200 volts anode voltage. The article also covers the physical construction within a modified P6-31 enclosure, outlining the internal layout for RF and power supply sections, and includes photos of the completed unit. It highlights critical safety precautions for working with high voltages and reactive currents up to **20 Amperes** in the P-network.
