HNY all: Apropo of the recent discussions on "dirty" RF I have been considering putting together a "station monitor" to monitor my RF output. I have a K3 (7588) but also an ICOM 7200, Drake TR7A, Drake C-line & a couple of amps. I have a 70MHz occilliscope that I would like to place between amp & feed line to various antennas. I want to make sure my CW & SSB output is clean without clicks or splatter, especially at higher output. This would allow me to see if there is any effect on waveform from the amp compared to the transmitter output as well. Some sort of attenuator is needed to protect the 'scope but also to make sure it doesn't change the impedance the amp or tuner sees. I understand the Bird wattmeters have such a "sniffer" circuit. I also understand the 'scope alone may not be sufficient for such a "station monitor". Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. If this is not appropiate for this reflector, I apologize, and would be happy to take replies off list. Tnx & hny to all. 73 Mike DeLong KD8RQE ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected]
