My guess is that the startup transient time On the B210 is slightly longer and you’ll need to compensate for that. On average the B210 output power will be perhaps 3-4dB lower than N310. But that should not make much difference at close range. Sent from my iPhone > On Mar 4, 2021, at 5:18 AM,

Indeed, a 900Mhz duplexor with a 400Khz split is an extreme challenge. If the TX and RX really do need to operate at the same time on more or less the same frequency, then you have some plumbing to do for sure. Sent from my iPhone > On Jan 5, 2021, at 12:07 AM, Marcus D Leech wrote: > > To

To do a little expectation-setting, the narrowband MDS of a modern, not that spectacular, UHF RX chain of better than -140dBm is not that unusual. So when I talk about a sensitive RX chain, I’m talking about those sorts of levels. In that kind of context, -24dBm seems deafeningly loud, and -80dB

If the TX and RX frequencies are a few 100kHz different then what you want is a duplexor arrangement where the TX frequency is strongly attenuated ahead of the RX. This is how repeaters work when multicoipled to a single antenna. The TX frequency is often attenuated 90dB in the RX path. Se
