AA7 • 5 The dual-g ate MOSFET amp lifier circuit (Q 1), selected with S1 in the “o ut” position is designated the HF preamp circuit, due to the exce ptionally low noise level of its operation. This is ideal for enhan cing weak C W -SSB signals. This amplif ier perform s the true “a ctive antenna” fu nction of the AA7. The 2SC2 498 amplifi ...
