These transistors cost $69.95 at RF Parts
This is a fantastic deal... http://www.telstar-electronics.com/d...sClearance.htm |

That is a MOSFET so a number of changes would be required to the circuit. You also need to accommodate it which might be difficult as the rest of the board was designed around a TO220. The frequency range is too high so no chance of much gain on 27MHz. Go and do some research. |

Go and do some research. Never said they worked directly in a CB. They certainly can work at 27MHz though.. with very good gain! They are also 28Vdc. I sure can tell you're an engineer.

Gain increases as frequency decreases. The major problem of using this device at 27 MHz is keeping the gain low enough so that the amp will be stable. Any amp using this part at 27MHz will have to have a lot of feedback to minimize gain. Also FET large signal impedances are not all th at different from bipolar devices. With RF power amps you are more interested in the large signal characteristics of the device and not the small signal characteristics. This device would make a decent preamp for 27MHz if you can make it stable. Would have a excellent 3rd order intermod characteristics also. james |

Yes the gain would be high at 27MHz... however... having too much gain is never really a big problem... you can always throttle it back. It's having too little gain that comes to get you...

Try to run them puppies hard outside the recommended frequency range and -=POOF=-!!! |

I have built amplifiers at 40MHz with these MRF173s with no problem. That's like saying since a 2N3055 has an Ft=2.5MHz... that you couldn't use for an audio amp... or they would blow up...

Nonsense Frank... I have built amplifiers at 40MHz with these MRF173s with no problem. Uh-huh. That's why you are unloading them at a fraction of the market price, right? That's like saying since a 2N3055 has an Ft=2.5MHz... that you couldn't use for an audio amp... or they would blow up... LOL Incredible..... how do you manage to stick your foot so deep into your mouth? The 2N3055 is bipolar, has a relatively low input impedance, and is -INTENDED- for frequencies from DC through audio and up. Not only that, your implication is that the transition frequency (Ft) is the intended operation frequency when in fact it is the point at which the transistor exhibits unity gain, making it pracitically useless at that frequency. So where's that schematic, Brian? |

Frank, don't know any nice way of saying it... you're just plain stupid. www.telstar-electronics.com |
