Title: REA AMM-SD1 Post by: N4RMT on April 10, 2016, 10:51:41 AM I'm thinking of purchasing one of these beacuse I don't have room for, (and can't find) a traditional mod monitor like a gates or boonton. Looking for opinions / experience with this unit. Best before or after the linear? Accuracy and so forth?
Thanks Title: Re: REA AMM-SD1 Post by: Pete, WA2CWA on April 10, 2016, 12:27:29 PM eham reviews: http://www.eham.net/reviews/detail/11257

...while I do not have one, I do know that he also sells these to all sorts of commercial broadcast stations, and the fact that it is on a PC makes it possible for them to do all sorts of neat things with it, beside simple mod monitoring. _-_- Title: Re: REA AMM-SD1 Post by: N4RMT on April 10, 2016, 10:34:02 PM Thanks guys.

"sells these to all sorts of commercial broadcast stations" Is the REA AMM-SD1 Mod Monitor FCC type approved ?...while I do not have one, I do know that he also sells these to all sorts of commercial broadcast stations, and the fact that it is on a PC makes it possible for them to do all sorts of neat things with it, beside simple mod monitoring. _-_- Title: Re: REA AMM-SD1 Post by: n1eu on April 13, 2016, 07:06:13 AM Very happy with mine (installed after the linear). I've received excellent support on the monitor from Bob Richardson.
When I asked them about accuracy, they told me it's accurate within 2%. 73, Barry N1EU Title: Re: REA AMM-SD1 Post by: WD8BIL on April 13, 2016, 03:36:01 PM Type approval is only needed on transmitting devices including power amplifiers.

Disconnect the pick up unit from the antenna during the lightning storm days, as that will destroy the unit. |
