repeaters in Malaysia is
a) Plus 600kHz c) minus 5 MHz
b) minus 600kHz d) plus5 MHZ

My answer: a)

Offset
Offset is the difference between a radio channel's receive and transmit frequencies.
Most commonly it refers to the separation between the input frequency and output
frequency of a repeater or other type of full duplex system. This should not be
confused with the trunking offset required when programming certain types of trunked
radio systems in certain scanner models.
For example, a mobile radio receives on 146.94 and transmits on 146.34 in order to
operate on a repeater.
146.94 - 146.34 = 0.6 (0.6 MHz or 600 kHz)

Since in this case the mobile radio transmit frequency (repeater input) is lower than
the mobile radio receive frequency (repeater output), it is said to have a negative
offset of 600 kHz or -600 kHz.

Certain bands and frequency ranges in the United States have standardized offsets.

Trap Dipoles and Parallel Dipoles
For multiband applications, you’ll often find the trap dipole and the parallel dipole.
 Traps are tuned circuits that act somewhat like automatically switched inductors or
capacitors, adding or subtracting from the length of the antenna according to the
frequency of your signal.

 The parallel dipole uses a different approach. In the parallel design, several dipoles
are joined together in the center and fed with the same cable. The dipole that
radiates the RF is the one that presents an impedance that most closely matches
the cable (50 ohms). That matching impedance will change according to the
frequency of the signal. One dipole will offer a 50-ohmmatch on, say, 40 meters,
while another provides the best match on 20 meters.

Obviously, these designs are somewhat more complicated than single-band dipoles,
although many hams do choose to build their own. If you don’t have time or desire to
tackle a trap or parallel dipole, you’ll discover that many QST advertisers sell prebuilt
models.

Charliechong 黑豹 https://www.youtube.com/embed/wGE4tjATecY
Antenna Gain: A relative measure of an antenna's ability to direct or concentrate
radio frequency energy in a particular direction or pattern. The measurement is
typically measured in dBi (Decibels relative to an isotropic radiator) or in dBd (Decibels
relative to a dipole radiator).

custome antenna
Gains = 10 log10 (Isotropic antenna) . Example if the directed signal measured at remote
is twice the isotropic antenna value, the antenna gain will be 10 log10(2) = 3dbi#

Isotropic Radiator: is a theoretical single point in space that radiates energy


equally in every direction similar to the Sun radiating its light. The isotropic radiator
exhibits the same magnitude or properties when measured in all directions. It has no
preferred direction of radiation. It radiates uniformly in all directions over a sphere
centered on the source.

Amplifier Class by Conduction Angle

Charliechong 黑豹 https://www.electronics-tutorials.ws/amplifier/amplifier-classes.html
Amplifier Classes
Amplifiers are classified into classes according to their construction and operating
characteristics

Not all amplifiers are the same and there is a clear distinction made between the way
their output stages are configured and operate. The main operating characteristics of
an ideal amplifier are linearity, signal gain, efficiency and power output but in real
world amplifiers there is always a trade off between these different characteristics.
Generally, large signal or power amplifiers are used in the output stages of audio
amplifier systems to drive a loudspeaker load. A typical loudspeaker has an
impedance of between 4Ω and 8Ω, thus a power amplifier must be able to supply the
high peak currents required to drive the low impedance speaker.
One method used to distinguish the electrical characteristics of different types of
amplifiers is by “class”, and as such amplifiers are classified according to their circuit
configuration and method of operation. Then Amplifier Classes is the term used to
differentiate between the different amplifier types.

Charliechong 黑豹 https://www.electronics-tutorials.ws/amplifier/amplifier-classes.html
Amplifier Classes represent the amount of the output signal which varies within the
amplifier circuit over one cycle of operation when excited by a sinusoidal input signal.

Charliechong 黑豹 https://www.electronics-tutorials.ws/amplifier/amplifier-classes.html
The classification of amplifiers range from entirely linear operation (for use in high-
fidelity signal amplification) with very low efficiency, to entirely non-linear (where a
faithful signal reproduction is not so important) operation but with a much higher
efficiency, while others are a compromise between the two.

Amplifier classes are mainly lumped into two basic groups. The first are the classically
controlled conduction angle amplifiers forming the more common amplifier classes
of A, B, AB and C, which are defined by the length of their conduction state over some
portion of the output waveform, such that the output stage transistor operation lies
somewhere between being “fully-ON” and “fully-OFF”.

The second set of amplifiers are the newer so-called “switching” amplifier classes of D,
E, F, G, S, T etc, which use digital circuits and pulse width modulation (PWM) to
constantly switch the signal between “fully-ON” and “fully-OFF” driving the output hard
into the transistors saturation and cut-off regions.
The most commonly constructed amplifier classes are those that are used as audio
amplifiers, mainly class A, B, AB and C and to keep things simple, it is these types
of amplifier classes we will look at here in more detail.

Charliechong 黑豹 https://www.electronics-tutorials.ws/amplifier/amplifier-classes.html
Class A Amplifier
Class A Amplifiers are the most common type of amplifier class due mainly to their
simple design. Class A, literally means “the best class” of amplifier due mainly to their
low signal distortion levels and are probably the best sounding of all the amplifier
classes mentioned here. The class A amplifier has the highest linearity over the other
amplifier classes and as such operates in the linear portion of the characteristics curve.

Generally class A amplifiers use the same single transistor (Bipolar, FET, IGBT, etc)
connected in a common emitter configuration for both halves of the waveform with the
transistor always having current flowing through it, even if it has no base signal. This
means that the output stage whether using a Bipolar, MOSFET or IGBT device, is
never driven fully into its cut-off or saturation regions but instead has a base biasing
Q-point in the middle of its load line. Then the transistor never turns “OFF” which is
one of its main disadvantages.

Charliechong 黑豹 https://www.electronics-tutorials.ws/amplifier/amplifier-classes.html
To achieve high linearity and gain, the output stage of a class A amplifier is biased “ON”
(conducting) all the time. Then for an amplifier to be classified as “Class A” the zero
signal idle current in the output stage must be equal to or greater than the maximum
load current (usually a loudspeaker) required to produce the largest output signal.

As a class A amplifier operates in the linear portion of its characteristic curves, the
single output device conducts through a full 360 degrees of the output waveform.
Then the class A amplifier is equivalent to a current source.
Since a class A amplifier operates in the linear region, the transistors base (or gate)
DC biasing voltage should by chosen properly to ensure correct operation and low
distortion. However, as the output device is “ON” at all times, it is constantly carrying
current, which represents a continuous loss of power in the amplifier.

Charliechong 黑豹 https://www.electronics-tutorials.ws/amplifier/amplifier-classes.html
Due to this continuous loss of power class A amplifiers create tremendous amounts of
heat adding to their very low efficiency at around 30%, making them impractical for
high-power amplifications. Also due to the high idling current of the amplifier, the
power supply must be sized accordingly and be well filtered to avoid any amplifier hum
and noise. Therefore, due to the low efficiency and over heating problems of Class A
amplifiers, more efficient amplifier classes have been developed.

A Amplifier

Charliechong 黑豹 https://www.electronics-tutorials.ws/amplifier/amplifier-classes.html
Class B Amplifier
Class B amplifiers were invented as a solution to the efficiency and heating problems
associated with the previous class A amplifier. The basic class B amplifier uses two
complimentary transistors either bipolar of FET for each half of the waveform with its
output stage configured in a “push-pull” type arrangement, so that each transistor
device amplifies only half of the output waveform.
In the class B amplifier, there is no DC base bias current as its quiescent current is
zero, so that the dc power is small and therefore its efficiency is much higher than that
of the class A amplifier. However, the price paid for the improvement in the efficiency is
in the linearity of the switching device.

Charliechong 黑豹 https://www.electronics-tutorials.ws/amplifier/amplifier-classes.html
Class B Amplifier

Charliechong 黑豹 https://www.electronics-tutorials.ws/amplifier/amplifier-classes.html
When the input signal goes positive, the positive biased transistor conducts while the
negative transistor is switched “OFF”. Likewise, when the input signal goes negative,
the positive transistor switches “OFF” while the negative biased transistor turns “ON”
and conducts the negative portion of the signal. Thus the transistor conducts only half
of the time, either on positive or negative half cycle of the input signal.
Then we can see that each transistor device of the class B amplifier only conducts
through one half or 180 degrees of the output waveform in strict time alternation, but
as the output stage has devices for both halves of the signal waveform the two halves
are combined together to produce the full linear output waveform.
This push-pull design of amplifier is obviously more efficient than Class A, at about
50%, but the problem with the class B amplifier design is that it can create distortion at
the zero-crossing point of the waveform due to the transistors dead band of input base
voltages from -0.7V to +0.7.

Charliechong 黑豹 https://www.electronics-tutorials.ws/amplifier/amplifier-classes.html
We remember from the Transistor tutorial that it takes a base-emitter voltage of about
0.7 volts to get a bipolar transistor to start conducting. Then in a class B amplifier, the
output transistor is not “biased” to an “ON” state of operation until this voltage is
exceeded.
This means that the part of the waveform which falls within this 0.7 volt window will not
be reproduced accurately making the class B amplifier unsuitable for precision audio
amplifier applications.
To overcome this zero-crossing distortion (also known as Crossover Distortion) class
AB amplifiers were developed.

Charliechong 黑豹 https://www.electronics-tutorials.ws/amplifier/amplifier-classes.html
Class AB Amplifier
As its name suggests, the Class AB Amplifier is a combination of the “Class A” and the
“Class B” type amplifiers we have looked at above. The AB classification of amplifier is
currently one of the most common used types of audio power amplifier design. The
class AB amplifier is a variation of a class B amplifier as described above, except that
both devices are allowed to conduct at the same time around the waveforms
crossover point eliminating the crossover distortion problems of the previous class B
amplifier.
The two transistors have a very small bias voltage, typically at 5 to 10% of the
quiescent current to bias the transistors just above its cut-off point. Then the
conducting device, either bipolar of FET, will be “ON” for more than one half cycle, but
much less than one full cycle of the input signal. Therefore, in a class AB amplifier
design each of the push-pull transistors is conducting for slightly more than the half
cycle of conduction in class B, but much less than the full cycle of conduction of class
A.
In other words, the conduction angle of a class AB amplifier is somewhere between
180oand 360o depending upon the chosen bias point as shown.

Charliechong 黑豹 https://www.electronics-tutorials.ws/amplifier/amplifier-classes.html
Class AB Amplifier

Charliechong 黑豹 https://www.electronics-tutorials.ws/amplifier/amplifier-classes.html
The advantage of this small bias voltage, provided by series diodes or resistors, is that
the crossover distortion created by the class B amplifier characteristics is overcome,
without the inefficiencies of the class A amplifier design. So the class AB amplifier is a
good compromise between class A and class B in terms of efficiency and linearity, with
conversion efficiencies reaching about 50% to 60%.
Class C Amplifier

Charliechong 黑豹 https://www.electronics-tutorials.ws/amplifier/amplifier-classes.html
Class C Amplifier
The Class C Amplifier design has the greatest efficiency but the poorest linearity of the
classes of amplifiers mentioned here. The previous classes, A, B and AB are
considered linear amplifiers, as the output signals amplitude and phase are linearly
related to the input signals amplitude and phase.
However, the class C amplifier is heavily biased so that the output current is zero for
more than one half of an input sinusoidal signal cycle with the transistor idling at its
cut-off point. In other words, the conduction angle for the transistor is significantly less
than 180 degrees, and is generally around the 90 degrees area.
While this form of transistor biasing gives a much improved efficiency of around 80%
to the amplifier, it introduces a very heavy distortion of the output signal. Therefore,
class C amplifiers are not suitable for use as audio amplifiers.

Charliechong 黑豹 https://www.electronics-tutorials.ws/amplifier/amplifier-classes.html
Class C Amplifier

Charliechong 黑豹 https://www.electronics-tutorials.ws/amplifier/amplifier-classes.html
Due to its heavy audio distortion, class C amplifiers are commonly used in high
frequency sine wave oscillators and certain types of radio frequency amplifiers, where
the pulses of current produced at the amplifiers output can be converted to complete
sine waves of a particular frequency by the use of LC resonant circuits in its collector
circuit.

Charliechong 黑豹 https://www.electronics-tutorials.ws/amplifier/amplifier-classes.html
Amplifier Classes Summary
Then we have seen that the quiescent DC operating point (Q-point) of an amplifier
determines the amplifier classification. By setting the position of the Q-point at half
way on the load line of the amplifiers characteristics curve, the amplifier will operate as
a class A amplifier. By moving the Q-point lower down the load line changes the
amplifier into a class AB, B or C amplifier.
Then the class of operation of the amplifier with regards to its DC operating point can
be given as:

Amplifier Classes and Efficiency

Charliechong 黑豹 https://www.electronics-tutorials.ws/amplifier/amplifier-classes.html
As well as audio amplifiers there are a number of high efficiency Amplifier
Classesrelating to switching amplifier designs that use different switching techniques
to reduce power loss and increase efficiency. Some amplifier class designs listed
below use RLC resonators or multiple power-supply voltages to reduce power loss, or
are digital DSP (digital signal processing) type amplifiers which use pulse width
modulation (PWM) switching techniques.

Biasing
Biasing in electronics means establishing predetermined voltages or currents at
various points of an electronic circuit for the purpose of establishing proper operating
conditions in electronic components. Many electronic devices such as diodes,
transistors and vacuum tubes, whose function is processing time-varying (AC) signals
also require a steady (DC) current or voltage to operate correctly — a bias. The AC
signal applied to them is superposed on this DC bias current or voltage. The operating
point of a device, also known as bias point, quiescent point, or Q-point, is the DC
voltage or current at a specified terminal of an active device (a transistor or vacuum
tube) with no input signal applied. A bias circuit is a portion of the device's circuit which
supplies this steady current or voltage.

What is quiescent current?
During the DC biasing of transistor for amplifier, it should be cared that transistor
should be in active region for the whole range of input signal applied to it. A fixed
quiescent point is chosen on V(ce)-I(c) load line curve, so as to get full amplified signal
as of the input. the current Ic (collector current ) at this point is known as quiescent
current and voltage Vce (collector to emitter voltage ) is known as quiescent voltage.

DIP Oscillator
Grid dip oscillator (GDO), also called grid dip meter, dip meter, dipmeter, or just dipper,
is a measuring instrument to measure resonant frequency of radio frequency circuits.
It measures the amount of absorption of a high frequency inductively coupled
magnetic field by nearby objects. It is an oscillator whose amplitude changes when
near a resonant circuit which is tuned to the frequency the oscillator generates. At the
heart of the instrument is a tunable LC circuit with a coil that serves as a loose
inductive coupling to the measured LC resonant circuit. Resonance is indicated by a
dip in the meter indicator on the device, usually based on a microammeter.
