In this skill building exercise you will be shown how to simply and quickly diagnose the basic condition of a two way radio transmitter. Using a Bird Watt Meter, you will be able to get an idea if the transmitter is generating RF power at the desired levels and if there may be an issue with the antenna and feed line connecting to the transmitter. In this demonstration we are using a Motorola VHF MTR 2000 base station (transmitter) and a standard Motorola mobile microphone to key up the base station.
Step 1: Equipment Needed
- Directional Watt Meter
- RG 8 Coax Cable Jumper with a Male N Type connector on one end and one male PL-259 connector on the other end
- Microphone or PTT (Push to Talk) accessory to key up radio
A walkie-talkie is a 2-way radio. That simply means you can both talk and listen...listen. 2-way doesn't mean it's limited to 2 radios. A walkie-talkie can talk to as many other walkie-talkies! For more information Visit My Website. Thanks!
