In an effort to be prepared for figuring out how to work an integrated microwave SDR, I picked up three amplifier modules for 900, 1300, and 2400 MHz. They're all from the same eBay seller and presumably the same factory with matching enclosures, labeling, and design techniques. Lineup of the three amplifier modules (labeled 2.4G 10W, 1250, and 915) with the heatsink planned for future use.
It was a nice day in Wisconsin and, having taken Friday the 25th off for video gaming, it was a nice change of pace to throw in some POTA in a new location on Sunday the 28th. The actual intention was getting to K-1459 Lake Kegonsa State Park ( wiki ), which I definitely managed to do. I'll get to the RaDAR in a bit.
