Ramsey developed this unit to try and receive a small college station about 35 miles away. They had a pretty good omni directional FM antenna on the roof, but they also had a big 50KW local AM station about 3 miles away! Any preamp we tried simply overloaded and replicated the strong station all over the band. Ramsey's solution was to take their popular broadband LPA1 one watt (!!) amplifier, add lots of low pass filtering and selectivity for the FM band, and put it in a nice weatherproof housing. To make things even easier, we added a power insertion box to feed the DC power up the same coax as the signal! Wow, did it do a job! Then - as an experiment - we tried using it to boost one of our FM transmitters, cool! We couldn't believe the increase in transmission range, and the lowpass filtering made us feel pretty good about not futzing up anyone else's reception! Naturally, this is a no-no in the USA, but great for the export markets. Includes the outdoor PVC enclosure and the matching black case & knob set. Discover the first rule of amplifiers...do it BEFORE the noise, with the FMBA1C!
