HRWB 248 - Polar Modulation with Tony K1KP

In this episode we meet Tony, K1KP, the developer of polar modulation that is being used in the new Flex Radio Aurora radio.  Polar modulation is a technology breakthrough that allows Flex Radio to make an integrated 500 watt HF/6m transciever, power supply and antenna tuner in a small light weight package.  With better than 80% efficiency, the Aurora produces less heat, consumes less power and is smaller than conventional radios.  Tony, K1KP, has been developing this technology for over 10 years.  In this episode we will hear about Tony's journey as he pioneered polar modulation in amateur radio.
