Randy, The second stage of the PA is variable and maxes out at about 3 watt to drive the final stage to about 30 watts on a 25 watt rated radio. I believe that stage would go down to .5 watt with no problem when turned down in RSS but I havent actually done it. It would be more trouble for me to modify the radio to run the PA right now than it's worth since it already covers out about 100 miles with the power level it's running. I'm sure I'll end up using the PA on some other project eventually, as most hams do. ;) Thanks to all for their replies!

On the PA question... in the Maxtrac, what is the output of the exciter in that rig? It seems to me that likely its got to be very close to the level required to drive the Master II PA. Might be the easiest solution or at least if it were I, one that I might explore first. For what its worth. 73, Randy Yahoo! Groups Links Yahoo!
