Hi Dick, LF Group,

 

What power supply voltage will you be using for your new TX, and what RF power do you hope to get out with 4 times IRFP450?

Hi Dave / Dick.

 

If it helps:  I converted on of my 250W linear amplifiers which used 4 IRFP450s to class D(ish)  The power output went to 700W on 136kHz.  I just replaced the input phase splitting transformer with the normal class D 4426 driver chip.  

I also used the same amp in Scotland at 300W on 73kHz to work Jim M0BMU and Derek G3GRO who were nr Lands End. PSU was adjustable 35 to 48V.

 

Thanks
