Elecraft KXPA100 HF Linear Amplifier RFI Kit - 4 Filters for RF In/Out, DC Power, Relay/PTT/Computer Control
Product Details
MPN: RFI-ELECRAFT-KXPA100
Type: New
Country/Region of Manufacture: United States
Filter Power Rating (PEP watts): coax cable limit
RFI Suppression Range (MHz): 1-300 MHz

This is a generic linear amplifier RFI kit for DC powered amplifiers. Works on many popular amplifiers including:

Specially designed for the Elecraft KXPA100 linear amplifier used with the KX3 and the Yaesu 817 radio (and others).

Included are the following chokes and installation guidelines:

RF Input: 1/2" Snap on – 2 turns of RG-8X size coax through center (use additional turns if using smaller cable)

RF Output: 3/4" snap on – 3-4 turns of RG-8X size cable (use additional turns if using smaller cable)1/2

Control or Relay Cable: 1/2" snap on – 2-3 turns thru center - ½” diameter hole

DC Power Line: 3/4" snap on – 2-4 turns of +/- DC cables through center

Due to many requests for antenna static bleeders, we have developed a product line of static bleeders for coax and for ladder line applications.  Static electricity is caused by many situations including high desert wind, atmospheric conditions, etc.  You may hear static crashes or have a buildup of static electricity that my be annoying during a radio conversation and it may be harmful to solid state electronics if high voltages are present on the RF input to your equipment.

A static “Bleeder” which shorts the direct static voltage to ground while leaving the RF frequency voltage unaffected if very beneficial particularly to those operations in desert conditions where low humidity, high static buildup are quite common.  The SB-1 and SB-2 coax static bleeders work on coax line and the SB-3 static bleeder is meant for ladder line.

THESE DEVICES ARE NOT FOR LIGHTNING PROTECTION AND PROVIDES NO PROTECTION FOR LIGHTNING STRIKES!!!!!
