[Amps] 160m mosfet linear amplifier problem with ferrite cores

   I haven't found the detail of this amplifier yet, was this amplifier designed for 160 meter at 
the same gain and efficiency as the other bands?
Did you test the gain and efficiency at 7 MHz and compare it to 1.6 MHz?
Did you try to replace the broken core with two in series and repeat the above tests?

   Are you sure of your test apparatuses, the Voltmeter, Ammeter, Wattmeter and the test load?
