==Notes==
* This amplifier is nominally 4 Watts but can be run at higher power as long as the input doesn't exceed +10 dBm and it's temperature stays below 65 C.
 
* This amplifier runs on 12 Volts instead of 24 V like the 2 Watt Mini Circuits amplifiers.
* I am running this around 5 W and with additional heat sinks the temperature gets up to ~50 C.
 
* Instead of using a dedicated 12 V power supply, a 12 volt regulator can be used with a 15 V or 24 V
* Unlike the Mini-Circuits RF amplifiers, this amplifier draws more current as the input power is increased.
to get the right voltage. Make sure to use a decent size heat sink for the the regulator
 
* Also, the input and output relative to the voltage terminals are flipped compared to the Mini-Circuits amplifiers.
