  2. 1296mhz 150 watt Amplifier  Kits for W6PQL design sponsored for construction by Group members  (click here for more information)
  3. UHF Amplifiers for IC905 Amplifiers undertaken by John VK4MJF with assistance from George (VK4AMG) a past Club Life Member.
  4. After completion of both amplifiers in the 6th week only one has been tested/ ie let the smoke out. We had seen about 10 watts from the 6cm 20 watt amplifier first, by reducing the attenuation for looking for the 20 watts then nothing. See notes by George VK4AMG 3.4GHz 25W Amplifier by PE1RKI has been a success. Output of 10 watts at 24V 2A is recommended maximum. This amplifier paired with a exceptional SG Labs 9cm transverter. See notes by George VK4AMG.
  5. 5.8GHz 20W Amplifier, a path to a low cost ancilliary for the IC905. This and similar amplifiers, purchased on eBay by John VK4MJF, are intended for RF jamming and long range drone control by Szhuashi. Walter, ON4BCB, George, VK4AMG and Ivo, PA0IBR, and Harke PA0HRK contributed to published notes. Harke PA0HRK has submitted an article for DUBUS magazine. See notes by George VK4AMG and Harke PA0HRK.
