[600MRG] Not quite there

XKA got WSPR decodes of me on 3 freqs 60.0Hz apart. Apparently I have a
weak 60Hz modulation in my 100W Class-E amp. While investigating that
(it was not the power supplies), I found that the ringing at the MOSFET
gates was causing a weak output on ~25MHz. And then there was the
~1.6MHz gate drive oscillation that occurred when the U3 was not
transmitting. At least this last did not radiate! I fixed the last
problem, and will try some gate series resistors for the ringing. Maybe
I will be on the air in a day or
two................................................... At least the U3
appears to not be at fault.
