My emerging project amp (a reconstituted Alpha 76A that is missing it's tank circuit) would normally require a 6-position band switch, but the switches I have (one and a spare) are 5-position. I'm th
Besides possibly blowing the switch? Not much. It will have the same messed up Q that takes out the 15M contacts on several amps when trying to run full bore on 17. What sort of switch will you be us
Ceramic/porcelain, contacts are about 3-4mm diameter each. Is the likely problem excess RF current through the contacts on 15M at maximum output due to insufficient inductive reactance on 15M? What a
My eyeballs arent calibrated in mm, whats that in good old American? (-; When the Q gets excessive is when sparks fly from voltage buildup. Id add a contact to the existing one if possible, find a di
