Hello the list...
Since my G0MRF is experiencing intermittent short circuit in the
final amp, I plan on re-doing the output circuit per the M0BMU modification:

The M0BMU mod changes the circuit to a current fed design which
improves the efficiency. The mod calls for a transformer primary winding
using 12 strands of 0.3mm e.c.w. (enamel covered wire).
I assume that the 12 strands are used to improve the Q similar to the
way Litz wire works?
Has anyone done this mod? Has anyone tried alternatives to the
12 strands of enamel wire?
73 & tnx Warren K2ORS
