[VHFcontesting] Ordering DEMI transverters

[Bill Burgess]

Greetings,

When ordering DEMI transverters, it is important to tell them what you are driving it with and the power output.  They will put attenuators in the transverter for a 10 watt output transceiver, for example.  They also include provisions for a transmit preamp should the output of your transceiver transverter outlet not be sufficient to drive the transverter to full power.  I need this extra stage for my Icom 756 ProII as the required output is -0 dBm and the output of the ProII is -20 dBm (22 mv).  

In the kit, a set of ribs between two strips has to be cut and removed using a soldering iron, then the IC is installed in this area along with a few other parts and jumper wire.  The kit includes these parts whether you need them now or in the future.
