Alright....I now have the first pair working very well with a 2 port 1/2wl
power divider designed for 432, and very well balanced now on 1296.
In the shack using a 2 port directional coupler type of detector and
metering, I have a very pronounced dip from 1295.5 to 1296.8 that bottoms
out at 1296.1, so I'm very pleased with that.
Measured forward and return power is 12.8w forward and the return power is
indicated as less than 10% of the way from 0 to .1w. This is with a 2 dB
cable run loss. It may be less than 10% , but I'd need more power to see
that.
Tomorrow I'll take the meter up to the feedpoint and see what's what up
there...in fact, I should be able to check all 3 bands.
It's way too dark to read the meter up there tonight anyway....without a
flashlight anyway...hihi....73...Jordan....
