[DSTAR_DIGITAL] 2 VHF/UHF RIGS MOBILE

2010-07-28 Thread Mike Murphy
I am considering adding an Icom 880 to the car along with the Icom 2720 that is already installed. My concern is having 2 radios on the same band blasting 50 watts into the other receiver. Am I making a mountain out of a molehill or is having 2 radios on the same band running that much power

Valid concern! You're going to be killing the front end of each radio - assuming you'll have two antennas so close to each other. Unless you have some kind of combiner that has incrdible isolation. Donald ~ N2VU -Original Message- From: dstar_digital@yahoogroups.com

Yes, you are. It is possible (and likely) that if you're transmitting on one, you may overload the front end of the other radio, however, it will not damage it, just merely cause Capture Effect to come into play. From: dstar_digital@yahoogroups.com [mailto:dstar_digi...@yahoogroups.com] On

Michael, I can't speak specially about those two radios, but I have 2 dualbanders plus an IC-880 in my vehicle, all operating on 2 meters (most of the time) and have had no issues over the course of a couple years. The -880 is the latest addition... been in there for 3 or 4 months, but it

Mike, I run the following in my truck: TM-700 dualbander, ID880H, IC-7000, and a RELM VHF commercial radio. There are six antennas on the roof of my fullsize ford crewcab pickup spaced in two rows of three antennas. While I obviously desense the other VHF radios while transmitting on one of

I have a IC-7000 100watt HF, 50wattVHF. A IC-2720. A Kenwood D710 in a Honda Odyssey Minivan. I have the HAM VHF/UHF antennas on 3 corners of the van for over 4-5 years and have not blown out a front end yet. When I run HF, I have a Tarheel Jr on a mag mount in the center of the roof. Of

Just for giggles, I ran some calculations. The numbers are a little scary at first blush, but in practical terms they aren't that bad, especially when you consider the type of RF our rigs are exposed to at HF frequencies. You'll experience desense across the entire 2-meter band when you

Although it is an extreme case I thought it relevant to add, my stupidity. I installed an advanced receiver research 144mhz preamplifier on my 706MKIIG in my VW GTI to have some 2 meter SSB fun. After the GAS FETs in that preamp had failed twice I realized the likely culprit was my 25 watt
