Little has been published about VHF transmitter design employing transistors. Because of the fact that these devices are operating so far down on the frequency response curve, detailed circuit analysis is very difficult. However, with the use of liberal approximations and some experimental results, a rough design can be made. A design of a satellite transmitter is made as an example of the procedure. Such a transmitter demonstrates advanced practice in the use of radio frequency transistors as well as an application, which is itself of interest. As verification of the method, the sample transmitter was built and tested.
