EVERYONE THAT COMES BACK TO ME SAYS IT HAS A BUZZ
Easiest mistake is power wires being too small. If you have a 12 volt battery laying around, connect it to the amp and leave the vehicle connection on there too. Be sure to check the polarity, this is no time to get it backwards! Try the amp again. If the buzz is gone you have inadequate voltage/amperage. This is most likely due to power wires being too small. Palomar 225, i figure, will need 25 amps max so 12 gauge min., 10 gauge would be best, would probably do the trick. Wire direct to the battery. Do not go to a fuse block. If you wish to fuse it do so at the battery. I also am assuming you have a low SWR. Good luck....333 "Got RF?" |
