Improving the audio

The BITX transceivers have more receiver gain than needed. Backing it off a little makes the audio sweeter. Here is the mod:

  2. On the SMD boards, it is a disc ceramic 1206 sized SMD capacitor. In the picture it has been taken out.

    By the time you buy all the large caps for a 386 perhaps this amp should be considered.
