RF Power Output Control

Post by Dogen »

On the PCI Max 2005, can the RF power output be controlled via software or do you have to adjust it manually on the card?

Also, I've seen conflicting information regarding it's maximum power output. Is it 200mw or 300mw?

You can set it via software.

Power varies from sample to sample

Thanks for the reply Mark. Do you mean that the maximum output power will vary according to each individual's unique setup or do you mean that each card varies because of it's manufacture? I am assuming the former, but to be clear, are all PCI Max 2005 cards theoretically capable of 300mw in a perfect situation (i.e., adequate power, no line loss, perfect swr, etc.)?

Thanks
