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 MiniPA Linear Amplifier for HF page discusses the popularity of QRP for HF among ham radio operators, such as those using the Yaesu FT818 or low power SDR transceivers. It explores the use of cheap kits from eBay or Chinese suppliers to build a 70-100W SSB amplifier using IRF530 MOSFET transistors. The article provides a review of the MiniPA design, including its features, components, and assembly process. It also highlights the importance of using a heatsink and forced air cooling for optimal performance. This page is useful for hams looking to enhance their HF rig with a budget-friendly amplifier.

The DIY Power Meter project utilizes the _INA226_ high-side power monitoring chip, paired with an ATtiny85 microcontroller, to measure voltage, current, and power, displaying the results on a 128x32 OLED screen. The INA226 communicates via an I2C interface and is programmed with a calibration factor based on the shunt resistance and current register LSB. The project is designed to handle a maximum current of 500mA using a 0.16ohm shunt resistor, which can be adjusted to a 0.2ohm resistor, reducing the full-scale current range to 409mA with a resolution of **12.5uA**. The shunt resistor dissipates only 33mW at maximum current, making 1/4 watt resistors suitable for the setup. The PowerMeter.ino sketch configures the shunt resistance and maximum design current, automatically calculating the calibration factor. The project can be prototyped on a breadboard using an Arduino Uno, employing the Wire library for INA226 and OLED communication, and the u8g2lib library for the OLED display. For the ATtiny85 version, the Adafruit-TinyWireM and Tiny4kOLED libraries are used. The power meter is independently powered by a 3V CR2032 cell, with power switching options including manual switches or DC switched jacks. The low-side n-channel MOSFET switch configuration is tested but introduces voltage drop issues, making manual switching a more reliable option until a suitable DC switched jack is found.
