How does the signal level from a BOG compare to the signal level from an elevated Beverage? I'm sure the output from a BOG is less. But how much less? Enough to require a remote preamp? I've always wondered.
I --and many others-- have found a remote preamp on an *elevated* Beverage to be totally unnecessary, even with the lossy matching transformers that I used in the past. The only DC I ever run down my ~600' of RG-6 feeding a Beverage is to reverse directions. 73, Mike www.w0btu.com On Sun, Mar 11, 2012 at 8:50 AM, Pete Smith N4ZR <n...@contesting.com>wrote: > I have about 350 feet of quad-shield RG-6 ... it has only one BOG on it > _______________________________________________ UR RST IS ... ... ..9 QSB QSB - hw?
