Excellent transverter!!! Time Owned: more than 12 months.
I have one of this transverter, and I'm very surprised with it.
The receiver is very hot, and the reports of Tx are goods.
I used it with a Kenwood TM 255 E in low power output 5 W, and the THP HTX 240 works great!
It has two levels of input power 2.5 W or 10 W for 40 W output power ( 3.5 to 21 Mhz) and 30 W in 28 Mhz.
Now, I enjoy using it with my Yaesu FT 817 with 2.5 W output power, I have an "amplifier" in HF when is necessary to use more power. In this way, the transverter give me full output power.
I made a mod, I added an attenuator for Rx, 20 Db aprox. because in 80 m and 40 m is very hard in Europe in the night operate without an attenuator.
I bought this transverter 5 years ago for U$s 150, a good price for this toy!
I want to say that the service of THP is great, when I need the operator manual, they sent to me one copy free, and fastly!!
Tokyo Hy-Power, great job!!
Great service, others manufacturers should to do the same!!
TKs for all. Max. LU5AIM/EA7 Sevilla, AndalucĂ­a. Spain.
