The higher gain is associated with a GaAsFet preamp, not a DGFet or Bipolar preamp. ARR Makes both. Angle linear doesn't make a Phempt (GaAsFet type device) on VHF.
For the lower gain, you can get one from both the above sources. Since I prefer the lower noise, higher gain GaAsFet operation at VHF, I have to use ARR or another source to fill the same requirement mentioned below. (Some claim the GaAsFet is overkill at VHF, I don't.) If your gain requirement is less, use the other type preamp, but also know the noise level is quite a bit higher. Here's a quick reference sheet. http://www.advancedreceiver.com/page3.html cheers, skipp > "Joel Mele" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hello To All: > > Does any one have suggestions for a repeater preamp. 160 Mhz Rcv range and 153 Mhz Xmit range. > > I 'd like to find a unit with about 6-9dB gain, possibly with a preselector. > > I am trying to stay away from the Adance Receiver Research type that runs "wide open" with 24+ dB of gain. > > Thanks...Joel W4SLH Yahoo!
