To save me a trip to storage, refresh my memory. Are the Wilkinson resistors soldered to the back of that little square perforated box, or do they have a mounting flange and attach to the box and rack plate with screws? If the former, I'm not sure where to get them. But they could probably be replaced fairly easily with a flange mount type instead. For flange mount types, try EMC thick-film resistors (http://www.emct.com/microwavepassivecomponents-a40835.html). I've used them for building my own Wilkinsons for other projects. They also make terminators (one lead instead of two, with the flange being ground) which are nice for building quadrature hybrids using "twisted wire" coax. I've used others from KDI/Triangle too in the past (now Aeroflex, who also took over IFR). http://www.aeroflex-kdi.com/resistor-products/pdfiles/PMS.pdf If you Google some combination of the words stripline, RF, resistors, flange, etc. you can probably find others. If you totally strike out, I might be able to spare one of the flange mount ones from my stock. --- Jeff -------------------------------------------- Jeff DePolo WN3A - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Broadcast and Communications Consultant Yahoo!
