[600MRG] Testing new Transmit downconverter

[John Langridge]

First of all, let me say thanks to all of the stations that continue to listen 
and transmit on 630m as the days seem to get longer at an alarming rate and 
noise keeps going up.  The last month has been brutal here in NTX but the last 
few nights have shown some improvements.  Thanks again!

Tonight I am testing a new transmit down converter developed and kitted by John 
Molnar, WA3ETD/WG2XKA.  The kit is pretty sweet, with a minimum of parts and 
appears to be capable of producing close to 20 watts using an IRF510 at 13.6v 
and around 2 amps.

SO far I really like what I am seeing.  Anyway, I will be testing it tonight but 
plan on letting it run in some capacity over night, whether as exciter only or 
driving the amp, I have not yet decided.

73 and again, thanks for listening!
