Hi Steve, Both sides are exhibiting pretty much the same specs - about a 100dB notch (each side tuned to the opposite freq), and about 1.5dB attenuation at the desired freq.
All cables are new RG142. Something's gotta be bad wrong if a 250mW input on the TX side will make noise. Using the Micor's exciter - about 270mW. Cannot see any spurs/noise within 80dB of the main carrier. Tim
