Good Morning Fellow Amphaulics, Friends, & Supporters of the World Renowned BBI: Thank you Luke for another marvelous design, layout, & charming video. Thank you again & God Bless to you & the family, TMP, Unit 22, from N.J.
Gota bust ya balls BBI - a SSB biased amp and will be used with an ICOM (which only really works well on SSB, they suck on AM) but no test on SSB and no test using that ICOM 7300 that's sitting right next to you. May I suggest doing a test with the 7300? There are A LOT of guys running 7300's. It would be good to see some tests using the 7300, especially SSB amps. Cheers
I can tell you that a BBI or 757 built works awesome with an icom 7300 on SSB… On AM., just the radio alone doesn’t quet have the umph to push the box because it doesn’t have a lot of AM swing… To compensate for its lack of swing get yourself a UR6QW 10 band digital EQ and it adds all the swing in the world… NB2WR31_Tim said it NOTE: I say BBI or 757 because these are the only two amp builders doing RF that take this level of precision and incorporate it into an amp that I can find anywere
@@TWOSU_NEWS I'm not sure how an EQ would change the radios RF output characteristics. Do you have any links or videos, I'd like to find out more about it. It would be great if I could use the 7300 on AM. Currently I switch to my Stryker 955HP if I want to do some real AM talking. 73.
32:00 facts… this applies to my realm also, I’m a car audio fella. I see so many leymans wondering why they cant use the gain knob as a volume control and it gets pretty old constantly trying to make them understand what its function is.. anyhoo,,I watch you on a regular basis and learn what I can. I find RF fascinating and thanks for all you do.
People are still hung on those 2879 and 2290 transistors with 35% collector efficiency. The 2879 has 250 watt collector dissipation and consumes a lot of energy. These amps with more than 16 transistors are 5000watt space heaters.
Turned out nice considering the cheaper transistors we have to deal with today, good job BBI. Looks great. Things have definitely changed since I Checked in last, I’m sure enjoying all the videos. I’ve missed out on lately, keep up the good work. 209 Wrong Way, Palisade, CO, swimming in the mud,
Can you help clear this up for me. I want to attach dual alternators to my 06 trailblazer and have them charge 6 batteries in parallel. Then those batteries with an inverter will run an EV electric motor that’s attached to my rear axle. Similar to a car called Fisker. It’s called series hybrid EV, range extender. Can alternators achieve this?
Here is something I can't figure out 2 identical 2510 2 an99 .Same set up same coax 10 miles apart .One radio that's closer to another station receiving gets less signal out can't .Figure out if it's strictly the difference in grounding or 10 feet in height difference ..Or is that just the nature of ground plane and earths magnetic field or water/mineral content in the ground ..We don't play anywhere in the levels you do .Strictly no modified and no amplifiers .How much does height and ground really affect distance
I've done extensive antenna testing at different heights and going from say... 20 feet above ground to 30 feet above ground makes a noticeable difference in signal in local talking. When I tested this, it was an almost 1S unit difference - which is HUGE. This is more of a difference that there is between a 1/4 wave vs. 5/8 wave or A99 vs. 5/8 wave etc.
