This has my curiousity.....does anyone know what stations doing this really do? When I have a splitter, power divides from the exciter. Each amp has fixed gain. If I have one 10 dB gain amp and a 100
N5OT does this. I have a tee in the coax and connect two antennas to it. To transmit and receive in two directions at the same time. This is done intentionally, if that's what you mean. I know my an
My QTH is on the California coast. I use just a wire antenna, so I hear and speak softly in multiple directions. It's common in contests, especially after the initial frenzy has passed, for me to hea
I inserted my remarks in your text below... Single band two amps with two 1/4 wl RG59. Multiband for two amps, they use something like magic-t spltiter from your website and available here http://www
Update, I found the other place to buy splitters, even for 4 amps, http://www.communication-concepts.com/new_page_17.htm 73 Danny E73M _______________________________________________ CQ-Contest maili
Yes Igor, I guess any stack match can be used. Here is another commercial product, note the underlined text:"Those splitters are use at different contest-stations worldwide ! link is here http://www.
Danny, Microham stack switch can split into 2 or 3 amp http://www.microham.com/index1.html Then one can split output of each amp into 2 or 3 antenna with anpther stack switch. 73, Igor UA9CDC _______
I suspect that they are running 4 different 1.5kw or better amps to the 4 antennas. I have no clue which one they might be listening on. Maybe they didn't realize that listening to 4 at the same time
I've been doing this with my 10m 3-stack since installing it in 1999. When the band is open to EU (local mornings), my bottom 2 are usually on EU and the top is SE for Caribbean, SA and long path Far
Hi, Tom. I have no first hand knowledge of such a setup, but these were my thoughts after watching the ZX5J video. I assume that having antennas simultaneously pointed in four directions means that t
They would automatically crank back and up with an exciter into a splitter. Do a two-way, and each amp probably gets -3.5 dB drive. Do a 4 way, and it is -6.5 or so per amp. Do a 3-way, and it is ei
I sometimes split 5 watts into two directions, with the same effect of clearing the QRM from my run frequency. ;-) - Rob, NH6V _______________________________________________ CQ-Contest mailing list
And it. Doesn't matter to me how many antennas you have or where they are pointed. If I'm calling you because I hear you and you don't answer... You don't get a third chance. I'll call a second time,
Tom, Another point to consider is that having an amp for each antenna allows you to use off the shelf components, such as coax, switches, baluns, etc. compared to custom or not so common 10 KW rated
