Description
This selective super low noise preamplifier uses the latest PHEMT transistor technology from Agilent. Due to his high technical performance - low noise figure, high gain and very high IP3 - it is the ideal preamplifier for contest operation as well as EME, Meteorscatter, Aurora and tropo DX.
Features
- Low noise figure and high gain
- LC filter (144 MHz) for good selectivity
- Milled aluminium case
- High IP3, ideal for contest operation
- Unconditionally stable. No parasitic oscillations in case of poor antenna match
Applications
- EME (Earth - Moon - Earth)
- Contest operation
- Meteorscatter
- Aurora
- Tropo DX
Important notes
- Amplifier does not contain a coaxial relay!
- Maximum input power 1 mW
