I just blew up the MAR-1 MMIC in my Ngen. A single dit of 15 watts on 40 meters was enough. Trying to just have a quick peak at the the filter bandpass on Baudline and bumped the paddle. Yep, take the shortcut and pay the piper. Should have taken the time to do things properly and unplug the keys and turn down the power...
I am in the process of putting together an order from Mouser, but don't see a MAR-1 listed. Anyone know off hand of a suitable substitute? I am also putting together an order for a KPA100 and K60XV from Elecraft, so I will order a replacement (or a few) from them if I can't get some from Mouser. 73, Darrell VA7TO K2#5093 -- Darrell Bellerive Amateur Radio Stations VA7TO and VE7CLA Grand Forks, British Columbia, Canada _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
