Hello All,
I finally was able to get up and running today and did a little testing before I headed out for work. The following are my results. Please comment if you can.
1) Royce 642 + Dosy + Max 2000 W/ Optimizer. SWR on channels 1-40 is 1.5. How I understand it, that's good.
2) Royce 642 + Thunderbolt 305 + Dosy + Max 2000 W/ Optimizer. SWR on channels 1-40 is now reading about 2.0.
3) My questions? Is the Thunderbolt 305 creating a false SWR? Is my True SWR really 1.5? Should I be concerned? I do not want to damage any equipment.
4) What is a safe Wattage to drive the Thunderbolt 305? Currently the DK on the Royce is 4 Watt AM / 12 Watt SSB.
Thank You So Much
