The amplifier circuit and layout was created by me, Antony Nailer G4CFY of Spectrum Communications, in November 1991 and continued with the original PCB until mid 2020 when a new PCB was laid out. It was originally designed for use as a single stage amplifier for 2m or 4m or 6m with devices to give 25W output. A version using a BLW60 was also capable of 50W output in the 4m and 6m versions. The 25W versions are not. So popular but I still make a 2.5W in 25W output version TA25W6M as a companion to the FT690. It uses a BLW60 device with a forward bias of 50mA and is tuned for peak power output consistent with an input SWR better that 1.2:1. The 4m version gives 50W output for typically 8W input. The 50MHz (6m) version usually gives 50W output for 5 or 6W input. It comes with a 1 metre 42/0.2mm red/black twin power lead and runs from a 13.5V 10A supply and usually draws 6A continuous on DATA or FM, or peak in the case of SSB or CW. This is NOT a wideband amplifier but is tuned input and output followed by a low pass filter to reduce harmonic outputs to -60dB or better. It is RF sensed including the unique Spectrum communications monostable RF switching circuit giving fast attack and 500ms hang time to avoid relay chatter when on SSB.
