Sean, The TPN1110 power supply that is normally found in the 100 watt Compa-Station is rated at 25 amperes. The fact that your PA is drawing 25 amps at 3/4 of its power rating indicates that it is not operating properly, since it is out of band. It would be a good idea to run it at a lower power setting and to check the output spectrum very closely for spurious emissions when it is driving your antenna. One of the fellows who performed all of the mods to get a TLD1693 PA to work properly in the 2m band did so because he burned up a few first. Most of the components that differ between the TLD1693 (150.8-162 MHz) and TLD1692 (132-150.8 MHz) amplifiers have to do with stability and efficient, spur-free operation.

I am using a mitrek exciter at 1 watt to drive a Micor TLD1693D amp. I have tuned it up and it is working great in the 147.xxx range. I get approx 75 watts at 25 amps draw or so and 110 at 30 amps. I don't have a Micor base/repeater manual, so I am wondering what current the Motorola supplied power supply is good for? Thanks. Sean NØPBA Yahoo! Groups Links Yahoo!
