Perhaps I should refer to what I am actually trying to do here. I have this same preamp. The input is really not much of a question since the source for it is a >5k + j0 ohm coil. It's tough to match, but I have something that works. Once again, magnetic components for this particular project are a nono. It also needs to be small in size. This eliminates the use of large value inductors, and large trimmer caps. It's the output that's giving me grief. I need to get a measurement of the current impedance before I can do much to fix it, since the only specs I have for the active component are for a long way outside of my freq. range. The test equipment I have available is as follows: 1xHP4395A network analyser 1xHP54645A DSO 1xHP43961A Impedance test set 1x Nice function generator. 1x Not so nice function generator. 1x Hybrid power splitter With that, and something I can build easily, how can I measure s-parameters or impedances accurately? --Brendan -- http://www.piclist.com#nomail Going offline?
