Hendricks QRP Kits
BITX20A to BITX17A
Conversion Instructions
30 November 2008
Converting your BITX20A Kit to a BITX17A Kit is not all that complex. It only requires that you
change crystals and some resonance components to values used in the BITX17A design. The basic
design for both 20 meters and 17 meters is the same, thus DC voltages and troubleshooting methods
remain the same except for obvious frequency differences.
