ANTENNA
The ALPIN 100 is able to match antennas up to an SWR of 1:3 (16..150 Ohms).
It is very important to take a suitable cable (RG213 or better) with a diameter as large as
possible for connecting the antenna.
All the rest ( i.e. : cable, antenna, balloon…) behind the RF output jack of the amplifier
should be able to resist 1 kW RF power.
You have to make sure about this before you start
operating with the ALPIN 100. If you are not sure, please check the data sheets to avoid
damages.

COOLING SYSTEM
The cooling of the ALPIN 100 is realized by a high-quality blower. The air input port is to be
found on the back panel of the amplifier and the output outlet on the top side.
!!! ATTENTION !!!
It is very important to guarantee a free air flow from the
input- to the output side. Leave at least 20cm of free space
to both openings. Please free the air filter on the rear
panel from dust regularly.
