Here is the problem, although appearently it is difficult to get across. :-) Filters do not dissipate out-of-band power, they reflect it. Stress on the filter will vary with filter placement on the

I've run C31XRs at two different QTHs, with triple feedlines on any two bands at the same time, at 1.5 KW, with zero problems for 48 straight hours. In both cases the feedlines came to stubs, then Du

Yup, definitely. The W3NJN QRO filters certainly do not have any dippy-dink caps, all appropriately sized. Cost more money, but in line after the amps they simply killed the problem. Worth every bit

Hi Guy, The reason why I find this interesting really centers around two things: 1.) making things work as well as possible for the investment appeals to me 2.) it's interesting to learn how stubs a

Used the ICE boxes and blew caps more than once. Replaced them with NQN filters from Array Solutions (the old style, all in one box version). Blew one cap, once. Had stubs in line, too. Barry W2UP __

Hi, Tom has many things correct. As a summary: there is current flowing through filter components when there is stopband energy trying to enter the filter. It creates heat and thus components failure

This is a valuable resource to plan antenna location for a multi-transmitter station. Thank you for providing it. I can relate to the problem of capacitors with lower than sufficient voltage rating.

It's the current, not the voltage that causes capacitors in the ICE filters to heat up and change value. The ones that fail are the caps that go to ground on the radio side (not the antenna side) of

Actually both are right - the current and the heat are the problem - but they are tied together through the ESR (if specified). The cap has a finite electrical resistance at any given frequency. And

Keith, I added a SPICE model of two low pass 3.6 MHz filters to my webpage. You'll see the stress on parts there for a 100 volt peak source through a 50 ohm resistor, which is about like a 50 watt t

An interesting thread. A single tri-fed C31XR has been used with significant success in both SO2R and M/2 scenarios at P3F for 8 years now. The single tower installation supports a C31XR, an XM240 an

Tim I'm not sure there would be any significant advantage. I have no plans to do this myself as it would require I build another high power tri-plexer. That's a lot of work just to stand still. I dou

Bob, what are your thoughts on the benefit of switching an individual feed line interlaced monobander, like the C31XR, over to a single feed line tribander with an antenna combiner attached? Assuming
