Default Any Motorola techs in here?

G'day,

Looking for specs on this amplifier:

Don't know much at this stage, apart from 4Watts drive (@ 430-480MHz)=
approx. 150W output, draws well over 30A from my poor struggling power
supply. I'm not game to up the drive any further until I know the specs!

Basically any specs or any info at all would be great, thanks in advance.

Cheers,

Let's take a wild guess here, you want to use it on the UHf Chook Band to
talk into the 5 w output repeaters, if that's the case, and I do hope I'm
wrong, you'd be better off with a decent antenna system,

Cheers,

Warren

WRONG, I plan to cause havoc on the remaining analog police repeaters-
ya idiot. There's more to the UHF band than CB radio you know.

LOL, quite.

Amazing isn't it - cannot discuss power amplifiers in these
Aussie groups without the usual knee-jerk assumptions, irrespective of
being perfectly within the law to own and use in an appropriate manner.
Apparently no Hams here use amplifiers I guess.

Been a few years, but looks like a PA out of either a MSR2000 or
MSF5000 repeater. In any case, I'd say you were overdriving it with 4
watts, as indicated by the 150 watts out. Its probably a 100 or 110 watt
amplifer. I believe that most Motorola exciters for such amplifiers
put out either 1 watt or possibly 2 watts.
