Thanks, I'm not too concerned about the filtering as I will be running it off a
battery for the test. Do you recall whether the 12V input is fairly well
marked? I don't remember seeing it when I looked for something like that
although I was only looking at the backplane.

The 12V input is two screw terminals, but I believe that you will need to
remove the
PS to get at them. They are located on the circuit board. 73,

I could be mistaken, but another reason why it would be easier to just
replace the caps is that I think you will then have to find and disable the
emergency power alert tone if you go direct to 12v. Unless you completely
remove the supply that is.

It's a 450 to 470 MHz, 75 Watt, continuous duty amplifier. *However*
the rating of 75 watts is after the Antenna Network (circulator) which
you won't likely use, so
I don't know what you
will be driving the amplifiers with, but do try to come up with the
right drive level.
That shouldn't be a problem, the daniels gear has a pot for variable

Thanks for that offer. I may be in touch with you on this in the near

Here is an anecdotal solution to attenuation. A major tube
manufacturer's tech support once advised me to use a length of RG-174
balled up in a container between exciter and amplifier to calm things
down to a closer match to input power level...
I don't say this is the most scientific method,

If all you want is basic timing functions and morse ID, I can do you a
controller chip that will require only a few external parts.
