I have enough HF amps here (four at last count) One of them is an ancient SB-220 , so I thought what the heck I would "hack" it and turn it into a 6M single band. I have a folder  full of articles on

Did you directly ground the grids with short wide straps? (best not to use braid). What did you change on the 10/15 meter coil to use it on 6 meters?  What are you using for tune and load caps? What

Good article except for tearing out the original relay. Not necessary, unless you want to use QSK or hate the sound of loud relays (like I do). Thanks 73 Jim W7RY http://www.arrl.org/files/file/Techn

From what I know on the subject, stick with the flat coil. Also, there is a quite finnicky, incremental and precise tuning procedure. I remember being with a local ham friend, when we fired his conve

Why are you running it in the CW position, instead of the SSB position ? 600 watts out in the CW position, with the HV you are seeing, doesn't sound far off. 73, Steve, N2IC All done "physically" but

Running in the CW position just to be on the safe side ( after all this amp is nearly 40 years old) Going easy on the power transformer. I can only get about 100 more watts in SSB position Dave NR1DX
