RF-5833H-PA002
150 WATT HF/VHF
POWER AMPLIFIERS
solid-state design,
modular construction, and
conservatively rated
components provide a
high level of reliability in a
“Jerk-and-Run” package
The Harris 150-watt power amplifiers increase the output of
their respective receiver-transmitters to 150 watts PEP/Average
in the HF portion of the frequency range (1.6 to 29.99999
MHz) and 60 watts PEP/Average for the VHF portion (30 to
59.99999 MHz). The RF-5833H is used with the FALCON® II
RF-5800H-MP and AN/PRC-150(C) radios.
The RF-5833H Power Amplifier operates in applications that
require medium-power, medium-range communications.
These include mobile, boat, or base station installations for
general-purpose HF-SSB and VHF-FM voice and data
communications.
Continuous coverage is provided over the 1.6 to 60 MHz range.
Independent outputs are available for separate HF and VHF
antenna configurations.
The power amplifier amplification section is a broadband
design requiring no tuning or adjustment. When used with
the RF-5382H and the RF-382A Series Antenna Couplers, the
output of the power amplifier is automatically matched to the
specified antenna and requires no special operator
procedures.
Built-in self-test features permit operators or maintenance
personnel to check the R/T and associated power amplifier
performance down to the module level. Fault conditions are
indicated on the radio’s front-panel display.
Power output is adjustable via the transceiver front panel or
remote control.
The RF-5833H-PA002 includes an embedded RF-5245
Pre/Postselector for collocated environments.
The robust design and construction of these power amplifiers
guarantee continuous high performance and reliability in the
most severe environments.
