Nice boards, good thermal provision and conform to diyAudio boards...
Is mosfet distance UMS compliant and are you going to sell these?

I received my boards today.
Very nice looking boards. The only thing I don't particularly like is one mosfet sits right on the edge of the heatsink if you are using a Modushop 5U chassis. Not a show stopper though.
The mounting holes are on a 10mm grid but DO NOT COMPLY with the diyAudio Universal PCB & Semiconductor Mounting Specification (UMS). I tried to make it compliant but did not like the resulting layout.
I designed the PCBs to use the Conrad Engineering heatsink model MF35-151.5. The boards measure 280mm x 52mm, and on the intended heatsink, Q1 sits at a good distance from the edge. The vertical lines on the heatsink indicate the aluminum angle footprint.

Jean-Paul created a PCB and is planning a group buy. I wanted a layout different from what he presented, that's why I decided to create my own. I did not mean to compete with him, but since my PCBs are so different from what he created, I don't mind having more copies made if other forum members are insterested.

Nice conrad heatsinks
Great, I'll just drill extra hole.
Please save 4 boards for me, I have Toshiba mosfet lateral and Edcor transformer waiting. I want to audition it with the all JFET F6. YGPM.

Very nice! But I will wait for Jean-Pauls boards as these are UMS! Dont want to drill
more holes! 😀 On the other hand I like the layout he proposed....
Patience...
Before ordering more PCBs to sell, I need to make sure they work as intended. I have all parts in hand and will build both channels. The next week I’ll be spending time with family and friends, so it will take a few days until the boards are ready to measure and audition.

My very thoughts before asking for a pair. They should as you say be tested. If they work as expected, and they sure look good and I would foresee no problem, I would like love to have a pair myself. I already have the input transformers and am waiting on some boards like what you have made.
Good idea to test. I will be interested in a pair once they are verified. They do look nice. 😎

Since I'll be drilling my own holes & don't need to conform to the DIY Audio case, I'd be interested in a couple of these boards.
