and just for kicks i took a RMS reading even though it does not mean much???????????????this is back words unless you have a scope you better acknowledge that rms reading and throw that pep reading out the door!
actually the funny part about that is several people on this forum myself also have owned the maco and the imax and the imax performed better but this guy is still lost.the 19 foot maco did not perform as well as my 24 foot imax sorry shock.maybe its the added length??????????????????
forget about those pep numbers they are meaningless the transistor in that rfx is rated at 75 watts pep but will do it in average.every transistor i have had on the bench did its rated pep power in average power.no transistor ever on my bench did its pep rating but in fact usually will do 2-3x...
good point audioshockwave if only there was some sort of camera that could pick up that pattern in the air by just keying the radio and go outside and point then we could see what was going on hell maybe there is.that sure would make things easier.
hello my .64 pal lol.i have owned several antennas and one thing seems to always hold true the longer of them always seems to work better with exception to the astroplane that seemed to work better than my shitduster!i have had the p-500,shitduster,asstron 99,midland 5/8,maco 5/8 and the imax...
agree to agree like cdx said first of all a s unit is usually between 3-6 db depending so divide that by 2 and you have 3 instead of 6 add that and 5.5 db comes to mind sounds about right.but who can really go buy db numbers based on antennas everyone has a db number do they really tell you...
most people dont understand this and dont understand the measurement method either!and 1 foot is 1 foot 10 watts average is not 10 watts pep its 10 watts period.i think doc has explained this best if you like your meter to slap all over the place then pep is for you!if you like to know what your...
nice fishing pole flatside!what the 24 foot antenna may work better than the 19 foot one dont tell the professionals with college education!lol on your question i think you answered your own question do you think the extra 6 inches of capture area and wave length would have any...
i would assume the 325 watts was on am pep?those radios do about 250 on ssb and are loud talkers on am but lack on ssb as far as modulation is concerned.am should be measured in average power not pep!while pep makes the meter look better it is not true power and most all radios have higher...
from my understanding after talking to someone at rf parts the mrf455 was discontinued and replaced with the mrf453 when i ordered a pair for an amp i was shocked to see they were larger than the mrf455 making better heat dissipation.when installed they performed just as good if not better than...
thanks for that read audio that was great.booty your spec sheet rates a 2290 at 60 watts 2x60 would be 120 watts i have seen several 2x2290 amps do between 180 and 250 watts but never 120 watts.as i stated before the toshiba transistors were underrated and i am not the only one that thinks...
