PR100 y 4 IN TRO DU C TI ON TO TH E PR 10 0 This amplifier is a truly ne cessary piece of equipment for y our 2 meter receive applications. W ith 16dB of gain, y ou mount this up on yo ur mast on the antenna to boost those w e ak signals to a receivable level. This results in clear, unbroken reception, and a m ore pleasa nt listening e xperience. T[...]

PR100 y 5 The RF passes throug h two more tank circuits consisting of L4 and C9 in the second, an d C12 and L5 in the third. Every time the RF goes through an additional tank circuit, the bandpass bandwidth of the RF is narrow er. The narrow er the bandwidth is before the active componen t of Q1, the better. The narrow ban dpass all ows Q1 to devot[...]

PR100 y 7 RAMSEY "LEARN-AS-YOU-BUILD ASSEMBLY STRATEGY" W e'll start building on the left side and work our way across, installing the lower components up to the taller sized comp onents. This will make our placing and soldering o f components easy . Be sure to read thro ugh a ll of the steps, and check the boxe s as you go to be sur[...]

PR100 y 8 ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS:  1. Orient the PC board as in the P arts La y o ut Diagr am . We will start with the left hand side of the bo ard, then go to the right.  2. Install C 6, the 22pF cera mic capacit or (m arke d 22).  3. Install C8, a 8.2pF ceramic capacitor (marked 8 .2).  4. Install C4, a 2.2pF ceramic capacitor (marked [...]

PR100 y 10 ALI G NM EN T: Alignment is fairly simple if y ou follo w these gui delines . The f irst step is to back all of the lugs out of L3, L4, and L5 until they reach the top of the cans. FL1 should be ok, and won’t ne ed any adjusting.  1. Scre w L3 in 8 turns.  2. Screw L4 in 8 turns.  3. Scre w L5 in 8 turns. If you have the equip[...]

PR100 y 11 PR EA MP INSTA LLA TI ON This part of the manual assumes that y o u have a re ceiver or transceiver (if using a tr ansceiver a TR S witch is needed, like our RFS-1). This preamp operates off a 12 volt DC supply which is connected to a 2.2 µH inductor then to the cente r of the antenna cable near your radio(see diagra m on next page). Ca[...]

PR100 y 12 THE PR100 Hookup is simple if y ou are using coax cable such as RG-58 or better 50 oh m cable. Just run a piece from the jack marked RCVR (J3) o n the PR100 to the .01µF capacitor just before the radi o . Then a short piece is needed to go from the capacitor to the radio. Finally, you ne ed t o connect the Preamp to the antenna and you [...]
