Yaesu FL-2100B on 6 Metres?
Posted: Sun May 18, 2008 11:21 am
Am looking for a modification to place the Yaesu FL-2100B on 6 metres?
The amplifier is similar in some respects to the Heath SB-200, same finals, same bands and I have found 2 consistent mods for this amp for 6 metres. The first is where the amplifier was gutted and rebuilt for 6 metres only, the other more popular modification was to loose 10 metres and modify this to 6 metres which is far easier and results in an amp that easily delivers 500W on 6 metres with 100W or less drive.
So why not the Yaesu FL-2100B I remember reading about placing this amp on 6 metres either in QST or AR maybe it was a mod via VK3OT? But I cannot find any reference now.... typical!
