Re: LF: W1VD amp help - more waveforms

Hello Paul,

Yes,  I  put  de-coupling caps on all of those, although some are tied
together, I went for over kill! Can you temporarily jury rig the driver
board  right by the FET's and then try shorter gate wires? Between the
two I hope you get a positive result!
