Looking for 915Mhz filters

Postby n2pdq » Fri Feb 26, 2010 11:45 pm

Anyone have a lead on some ceramic filters? I'm converting a few radios, and need to change out the front end filters. I know they have become hard to find, just thought I would try and ask.

Thanks

For what radio? Your other recent post references Spectras. If you're just trying to receive on the upper part of the band, like 927-928, you don't need to change a filter. If you need full band coverage, the drop-in replacement filters are NLA, so far as I know. Digikey and Mouser both stock various 915 MHz filters that can be grafted into a Maxtrac. Mini-Circuits does, too. If you're referring to a Spectra, there is no replacement filter, but the existing filter can be retuned with some difficulty.
