Hi Graham, MF
Good idea. Let's see where is the imit
I have just connected the U3 directly to antenna. Have not measured power yet but may be under 500mW
I'm not using the 3xBS170 but a mosfet driver instead, ICL7667 if I can recall correctly

Hi Luis
Nice going for 5 watts, but -8 dB with 75 % of the signal recovered , your nearly +30 over the limit .. can you drop the power down by 20 dB ? say 50 mW ??
