If I cut the star down, will this cause the isolation to be null? I mean if you're cutting and sanding, then the copper and the aluminum might touch on the edges... right?
I'm trying to figure out how to put a R/O into a MM.
I could do a custom alumium slug then paint the whole thing, then put a steel ring/washer on the top for conducting and solder the - to that but I need to find aluminum stock that I can use for that...
If I cut down the star... I'll still need a thick heatsink on the back... Plus it's going to be hard to solder the emitter leads that close to the small opening of the MM... Hmmmmm tight clearences suck!
