HIGH-EFFICIENCY VHF POWER AMPLIFIER.

Abstract

The report describes a high-efficiency broadband RF Power amplifier with collector efficiencies as high as 80% at 40 W output in the frequency range from 30 to 76 MHz. The amplifier was designed to fit the RT-524 radio set. The design and testing of the amplifier and associated protection circuitry is discussed. The report also explains the advantage found in using such an amplifier rather than conventional type amplifiers. (Author)
