* This nominally outputs 5 Watts but can output more as long as the input power stays below +10 dBm and the operating temperature is below 65 C. Because it has a fan blowing across the heat sink, it's temperature doesn't get to much above 40 C when running it at 5 W.

* When we first got this I accidentally hooked up the input and output backwards. The specs say it has a gain of 35 dB but I'm only seeing a gain of 33.5 dB. I'm not sure if it's because I hooked it up wrong that one time or not. It seems to work fine otherwise.

* I also replaced the fan because it wasn't working. It should always be on when the voltage is applied. It's an open question whether or not I accidentally put too much voltage on it at some point and wrecked it.

  • This nominally outputs 5 Watts but can output more as long as the input power stays below +10 dBm and the operating temperature is below 65 C. Because it has a fan blowing across the heat sink, it's temperature doesn't get to much above 40 C when running it at 5 W.
