Re: [Repeater-Builder] Winegard TV pre-amps
It's RV season again here in Connecticut and I'm expecting a few of these to roll into the area on their way to the casinos near our sites. The tough part is that they only tend to stay a short time before they run out of money and leave. Hard to find. The problem seems to be worse when the TV is not connected to the antenna. Some RVers stow their TV when they travel, but the antenna may still be connected to the power source. The combination of an unterminated coax and the high gain of the antenna makes a good feedback loop for oscillation to occur. 73, Joe, K1ike Andrew [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: This is the antenna that was causing interference :- http://www.winegard.com/interference.htm There was also an ARRL article floating around a while back.

[Repeater-Builder] Winegard TV pre-amps
It seems to me that this group has had discussions before about Winegard TV pre-amps causing wide-band RF noise. Does anyone know if there is a good model of TV pre-amp that works for the job intended but does not cause the RF noise? thanks Yahoo!
