galaxy 33 hml with a 4 mosfer box

[Texaspete359]

My question is on a galaxy 33 hml with the 4 mosfet amp imside. When u run the rf switch on low the box works great but when you try to run the rf power on high with the box on it just overdrive it. My question is there any way you can have it run on high with the box on. When I do run high I turn box off.

It would seem on the surface that you have already answered the question.

So in other words that's just the way it works. You can't do anything to run it on high with box on?

Not unless you want to blow your box up . . .

Q: Do you know what 'max amp input power' means?

Fair enough . . . nothing wrong with the right question . . .
All amps have a max limit into the amp that bests suits the amp. In this way, you get the rated amp output with little distortion. If one exceeds the amp's input requirements, either distortion and/or amp failure can be expected since the mosfet devices (in this case) can only take so much stress. So when the amp specs says 'no more than 1-3 watts AM'; then it is best to observe it.

You can't get more out of an amp by putting more in. Just doesn't work that way. They just blow up.

10 4. I never had a radio with any amp on it I always kinda didn't care much for them but I get what your saying. I know it was a simple answer but I wanted to just know thanks
