Specifications
Instructions for Use
The 2370PA is a broadband linear power amplifier covering the entire 1240-1300 MHz band
with no tuning. It has a linear power output of 65 Watts min. with 3-4 Watts of drive or a saturated
output of over 80 Watts with a maximum of 6 Watts of drive. Type "N" connectors are used on
both input and output. The 2370PA requires well regulated 13.8 VDC at 20 A for full power output.
Keying is done by PTT to ground and will source approximately 20 mA. A T/R switched version is
available (2370PAS) along with a ATV or repeater version with an extra large heat sink for
continuous duty operation (2370PAHS). A combination of both is also available (2370PASHS)
Caution:
cables on both RF connections. Install the amplifier with the heat sink on top or with the fins
vertical so the amplifier will convection-cool. A fan should be used in continuous duty applications
to blow air through the heat sink fins. It is recommended not to keep the amplifier continuously
keyed in a Repeater or ATV use.
Do not exceed 6 Watts RF input, or 13.8 volts on the DC line. Use high quality coaxial
