I was wondering if anyone in the mid-atlantic usa area goes to the Timmonium Hamfest?
I believe it is comming up in latter april.
In addition to lasers I do explore amateur radio.
N3IDS for those who know.
There is usually some laser stuff there.. mostly hene stuff...
I do intend on being there.
once i get the date i will post it.
Bengal... You need to bring my "car powered" 180mW unit there... just to mess with them!
Its basically like every dpss head i have here only i connect it to a pure sine wave DC/AC inverter through my cigarette outlet. Very neat toy.
This year I will know what to look for.
I got pretty much all I need for my other "hobby"
50 Watts on the "3 meter" band. ;)
Reminder,
Timmonium MD hamfest April 2,3
Anyone going?
If so I'll have my Ht with me , prob 449.3175 -rpt (yes its a low power portable repeater)
N3IDS is the call, so if your a ham and into lasers give me a call, prob be there sat.
If your not a ham, have something with photon lexicon written on it and il be sure to find ya!
CQ 532 nm
Yeap....
I'd sure like to go...Be a nice trip :cry: unfortunately too far
Maybe someday ...we'll meet
see ya 532nm ... cq cq cq Dog Xray...
Hum...only hearing static right now
Ahh there is other 3 meter people here aye aye saze de pirate!
i am in need of a small rf amp in 100 mw --out 1-10 watts wher or who can I get one min. amount of mula...
104.3 all solar powered
I have a few of these Ramsey PA-1`s that are modded with more adjustable ceramic cap
I have not tried these yet..
1 watt amps are easy, they are obsolete now, but there are similar modules ,
the ca2832 catv amp module will take 1mw in 1 watt out
it does run at 28v though
sony makes some similar, but these all run on 24 v
the minicircuits hela -10 ic is also a 1mw in 1 watt out , it does need a few external components. but it runs on 12 v
the amps draw approx 400 to 600 ma
these amps are very wideband, no tuning needed.
the ramsey tx is not the best to use. there is a Belkin fm tx (also known as a cd adaptor) it sells for about 35 bux around here at wal mart, it has a synth lcd disp, and stereo generation, in a very small package, if you use a era-3 ic you can get about 3- 6 mw, drive an amp i spoke of and you have a nice little tx.
I would but... Being in England I think I might have a little problem making a day trip!

nice info!
ok where can I get these broadband amps?
The mini-circuits can be gotten from the website, if you say you want some samples, (and you have a multimega corporation to put in the position field) ;)
you can get some for free. 1 or 2 quantity. as evaluation or sample units.
Made an error, the modules i said were sony are actually motorola.
i dont have a part number right now. but will post once i get it. its usually a mc something number
you could do a search for motorola catv amplifier
the modules are very simple to hook up , a cap on the input, a cap on the output, (.1uf should do) filter cap on the power, and hook up an antenna and signal source. and away you go.
is this the deal?

Bengal,
I just pulled some 25w and 40w wide band amps outta the old xmtr...
They run at 24 volts ..not sure of the drive requirements...
Just be careful and make a filter for the output if your gunna "Amp-It"
that second harmonic can get into channel 12 and 13 off air..
I will ship one up to you to play with... :D
Oh Hey,
Can my new rank be
"ALL YOUR PHoToNS ARE BeLoNG TO ME"
hey thanks, amps from heaven ;)
i dunno, those belongs to me sayings always seemed rather dumb to me.
kinda conjures up some kind of evil dictator image,
maybe
"I have become the Ultimate Photon"
hehe
Yeah perhaps you got a point there..
I think I'll leave it as is... :D
Hey Marconi

My days of TC's and Van deGraph's are over...
I ruined too many Cmos devices in my house with them..
In fact, If i had any of those here , They wouldnt work...
Too many lightning dissapators lying about to get rid of the "natural"
bolts that fly around here during the summer..."previously killed Ham gear"
Hey Mike, Where you been hiding lately?
