Look here for idea's on a power inserter, http://www.hamuniverse.com/wx9dxmfj4712.html Even simpler and less expensive you can find a old UHF TV mast mount amplifier which come with a power inserter with 75 ohm connector, just dissemble it and install a BNC in place of the F connector and RG58 pig tale with connector in place of the 75 Ohm RG59. 73's Bret WX7Y -----Original Message----- From: flexradio-boun...@flex-radio.biz [mailto:flexradio-boun...@flex-radio.biz] On Behalf Of Tom Clark, K3IO Sent: Monday, May 17, 2010 8:05 PM To: Peter Scheller; flexra...@flex-radio.

Such a widget would need only a couple of dollars worth of parts inside a box with 2 coax connectors and a place to solder the desired DC wire. The hardest part of this DIY solution is to find a suitable box the appropriate coax connectors. Perhaps someone will make a cheap aftermarket a suitable bias tee :-X . 73, Tom, K3IO [A big :-D since I won the Flex 1500 at Dayton] _______________________________________________ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ Knowledge Base: http://kc.flex-radio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flex-radio.com/ _______________________________________________ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ Knowledge Base: http://kc.flex-radio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flex-radio.com/ _______________________________________________ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ Knowledge Base: http://kc.flex-radio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flex-radio.com/ _______________________________________________ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ Knowledge Base: http://kc.flex-radio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flex-radio.com/
