Last year we lost a young and quite competent club member to just this, several kV on a very good cap was sufficient with the equipment isolated and disconnected. You may look up F4HQA. Be warned. R. |

Re: Bremi BRL200 27-28Mhz Linear Amplifier
Yes since my interest stated earlier the high voltage shivers came in and I’ve abandoned my HF modification motivation. Honestly it sits in my mind something that Bill Meara said on soldersmoke podcast. He has family now. It makes him think twice about old HV stuff.
A couple of MRF101’s or IRF510’s and an SMPS are a lot safer. Most nasty situations are covered with some safety glasses for the bits of MOSFET to bounce off |
