My Current Rig: The Quarantine Hodgepodge

 

As I continue to Stay In The Shack,  last week I was looking for something to do. This is what I came up with.   

Left to right: 

-- Speaker

-- Ramsey-kit QAMP20 modified for 40. I now have two MTP3055V MOSFETS in there.  

-- BITX40 Module with a solidified VFO from a Galaxy V (note the knob from a Drake 2B!)

-- Power supply 

It puts out about 15 watts SSB.  I was bracing for attacks from the 40 meter waterfall police, but no, everyone said it sounds great.  I had four very nice contacts yesterday.  It was fun. 

Still to do:  Possibly a San Jian frequency counter to give some Juliano Blue glowing numerals for the frequency readout.  This would be a step up from the Juliano Blue sticky note and  corresponding piece of black electrical tape that currently serves as the frequency indicator.
