MKU LNA 432 A
Selective Super Low Noise Preamplifier
432.2 MHz
This selective super low noise preamplifier uses the latest PHEMT transistor technology from Agilent. Due to his high technical performance - low noise figure, high gain and very high IP3 - this is the ideal preamplifier for contest operation as well as EME, Meteorscatter, Aurora and tropo DX.
