[Repeater-Builder] GM300 power adjustment limit?

2005-07-12 Thread Ken
I have a 40 watt UHF GM300 I would like to tune down to 10 watts? Is this a safe level to set to on the 40 watt units? I heard that if the power level is set too low it will cause spurs? What is the lowest power level I can set the amp to? Thanx for reading. Ken Yahoo! Groups Links *

I can tell you what I've came up with on mine and it might help. I have M120's as link transmitters, the boards are basically the same. If I turn my power down below 8 to 10 watts it starts acting up, spurs and changing power out each time you tx out. I keep my power set at 12 to 15 watts and

Yes please do use a fan. I have seen that even though you reduce power you are correct that too low makes the radio unstable in many ways. Lower RF output does not mean lower current draw, it will drop to one point but then level out. The lower RF also does not mean less heat on the PA, maybe some

Dave, I went through a mess a while back where one guys in our shop used Radio Shack connectors on my APC to N-female adapters... needless to say, he destroyed them. I searched high and low and finally wound up ordering from Agilent. As I recall they were somewhere in the range of 325.00 each.

Hi Bob, thanks for the input. I have one of those here already. Although I think it is behaving for the time being. I just have aquired one of these Standard Repeaters as well as an amp, hoping the amp will come down into the ham bands with ease. I hooked up the repeater, seems to sound ok.
