3 kW linear amplifier with four ART1K6 LDMOS fets
Circuit boards of the RF part
Drilling holes in copper plate
Fets soldered in a cooling plate
Two RF modules with a heatsink
Each module is tested separately
Four modules with cooling plates and combiner and divider

Simulation vs. real world
Diplexer looks good!
20 m Diplexer
Output without diplexer
With diplexer.... 3rd harmonic -50 dB@ 2 kW...
Dummy load spectrum
6-band HF diplexer
Test at 1,5 kW per band
160 m
80m
40 m without filter and with filter
20 m
15 m
10 m
Need more attenuation for 3rd harmonics at low band.
