[Repeater-Builder] Re: Use a band pass filter between pass-reject duplexer and antenna?
Eric Lemmon WB6FLY gave the best response to my question of how common is it to place a bandpass fillter betweeen antenna and duplexer. Most assumed a ham repeater with tx circulator and high rejection pass/reject duplexer which is correct. As I read the resposes it seems the answer is: this is not very common at all and not the best way to lower a nose floor to increase Rx sensitivy. It also adds to Tx power loss by a few dB. If broad enough to pass both Tx and Rx then the skirts are too broad to be helpful in eliminating RF from near by out of ham band high power transmitters. The repeater owner said he allowed a radio shop to install it that way, but it did NOT do the job of lowering the noise floor as promised. I questioned the wisdom, but thought I would ask if others had do it that way and why. --- In Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com, Eric Lemmon [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm responding to you directly, as well as to the list, because your question is a very good one that should be answered publicly. Without much fear of contradiction, I will state that a bandpass/bandreject duplexer has precious little bandpass effect. Sure, when you look at a response plot that covers 10 MHz, it may look very selective, but in reality the bandpass action is rather subtle. A whole lot of RF can blow through a Bp/Br duplexer in either direction, but MOST of the time this deficiency doesn't cause a problem. I would not put a BP cavity between the duplexer and the antenna, simply because such a cavity would diminish the function of the duplexer. Now, if you want to put a preamp between the duplexer and the receiver, a BP cavity tuned to the receive frequency is a very good idea. This BP filter should follow the duplexer and precede the preamp. Two 8 cavities with 1.0 dB IL work well. If you have a solid-state PA that has significant sideband noise, you might consider placing a BP filter between the PA and the duplexer. If you are using a ferrite isolator to protect the PA, a BP cavity filter between the isolator and the duplexer can take the place of a 2nd- harmonic notch filter or low-pass filter. At a crowded commercial site, you may be required to have a BP cavity on the TX side. 73, Eric Lemmon WB6FLY w7aor wrote: How common is it to use a band pass filter ahead of a pass-reject duplexer, i.e., between the duplexer and feed line to antenna. Any reason for adding a band pass filter there on antenna input to duplexer vs. between the preamp pre selector cavities receiver port of duplexer. Please respond to w7aor @narri.org Yahoo!
