:34 PM Subject: [Repeater-Builder] M57719N RF power module Anybody have any suggestions on varing the power on the M57719N Power Module? Would it be best to limit the rf input? Would it be ok to lower the vcc on the module? which would be the best approach? Brent -- No virus found

Hello Brent: I have been working with some of these bricks from Toshiba and Mitsubishi. If you ordered the module or are ordering this module from RF Products, buy the specifications sheet ($1.50) with the module. The specification sheet has much valuable data in it including a power input

If you are going to use the PA module at reduced(adjustable) power I would reccomend a linear unit as opposed to a Class C unit. It is designed for a full range of drive without restrictions, (within reason). Less concerns about spurious. Just a thought.Tony Faiola [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

Brent, Typical RF power amplifier modules are most efficient and produce the least spurious output when operated at the rated output level. The M57719N is rated at 14 watts on a 12.5 VDC supply, over the 142-163 MHz range. When you start reducing the drive or lowering the supply voltage, you
