Dear Elecraft, We are in critical need of a device that will allow us to monitor our *actual* transmitted signal. There are so many rotten signals out there it’s pathetic. Since it would appear the offshore manufacturers are clueless as to the need for clean signals, perhaps pressure can be put upon them to clean up their acts by having increasing numbers of transmit signal monitors in the field. In any case I’d like to know that my signal is clean. The CWops contest last week was the last straw for rotten signals for me.
For some time I’ve been using my P3 to analyze others’ signals. If I had a device that is similar in capability to the P3 to monitor my transmitted signal that might suffice. Here I’m thinking CW (spurs, clicks, synth noise…), but something that assists the op with transmitted SSB signals would also be of use. Likewise RTTY, etc. I don’t operate enough phone/RTTY right now to judge whether the P3 is sufficient to analyze one’s transmitted SSB signal. How about it, Elecraft? It seems the P3 has much of the needed function. You’d need some sort of coupler that was fast enough to capture high speed signals, while not passing a harmful amount of signal to the “P3T” (transmission monitor P3). Of course the P3T should easily handle 1500 W, not merely 500 W, to appeal to a broader market. Thanks for listening (I hope). 73, Gary W2CS ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
