Monitor Your TX Output With This RF Sampler

I’ve always wanted a circuit for sampling the output of a transmitter. Well, today, I got the July 2008 issue of Feedback, the newsletter of the Southern Michigan ARS, which included the circuit below, courtesy of K6LS. I think I’d use a UHF T connector instead of a BNC connector, but otherwise it looks like a winner. (Click on the image to go to K6LS’s fine website and get a larger version of the diagram.)

    Neat! Being newbie, why 1kv on the cap when the diodes wont take 1kv? Just wondering.

    I don’t know. I’d suspect that that may be what he had in his junkbox.
