Dear Gary, Thanks for the calculations. As we are using a +22dBm amplifier, the output per channel shall work out as -2dBm (+22dBm - 24dB, and +22dBm is 1dB compression point). However, the measurement shows that it is -24dBm per channel. Anything we have missed out? Best Regards, Chong

Hi Chong, I am not exactly sure what the equipment is being used for? Is this a receive amplifier or for transmitters? How much power output do you get with just one signal applied to the amplifier? Will it produce +22dBm with one signal if the input level is increased? What is the

Wayne, RG-55/U coaxial cable might not be your best choice. That cable came into being more than a half-century ago, as MIL-C-17/26, and was canceled late in 1969. The RG-55B/U had two silver-plated copper braid shields, a solid polyethylene dielectric, and a solid copper center conductor that

The transistor you seek is Motorola Part Number 4882233P60, described as MOSFET_SRFM33P60 and priced at $154.40 each. Although I don't have a commercial equivalent number for you, I believe that a careful perusal of an older Motorola RF Device Data Book will reveal the commercial equivalent. I

Hi All, Just a quick question to confirm before proceeding to finish. I have a low band Mitrek on 10mtrs. I am using 2 radios, one for RX and one for TX. The TX is working fine, and now I am just fixing a couple of issues on the RX. I note in the manual and Mike's information the wiring for

Hi Guys, Another project and another question for you please. I am installing a TS-32 on my UHF repeater. I followed the instructions and the decode works OK. Now I want the Encode Output to be active only when CAS is activated, so there is no ctcss present when the tail is on. I can't seem to

Kevin, When you are using separate radios for TX and RX, it is a good idea to perform all modifications to both radios, so that they are identical. When one radio fails, you can simply switch them and be back on the air in minutes. 73, Eric Lemmon WB6FLY -Original Message- From:

Eric, Thank you for your quick reply. I would agree with you in your comments below. I should point out that I have 3x 60watt models for the RX's and 2x 110 Watters for the TX (set at 60 watts), so I have spares to swap out as required. I would hope I don't have that many failures at one

You only need A+ on pin 4 for the Mitrek to receive. No need for the big red wire in the receiver harness/connector.
