[amsat-bb] Recommendations for a good bias-t for 2M and 70 CM

2010-04-24 Thread Mark Lunday
I have the Bias-T units from Array Solutions, but these are intended for 160-6M (I presume because of component losses at higher frequencies). What are folks using to power mast-mount preamps? Mark Lunday WD4ELG ___ Sent via amsat...@amsat.org.
