[NLRS] 2M Stck help

[Kirk P]

Ok,

So Ive got a pair of M2 2M12's that Ill use for EME.

I have the power divider, will order phasing cables from M2 so they are correct.

My feed line will be about 40' of 1/2 Heliax. My amp is the TE Systems 1452G that does 300w comfortably.

I currently have a ARR preamp AT THE RADIO RX INPUT.

Will it be necessary to have a preamp OUT AT THE ANTENNA?

If so, which is recommended, along with a sequencer I would assume, for use in this configuration.


(As a FWIW, I used just one of the 2m12's last winter and worked a couple of stations. I'd hoped to go to 432 but received no ideas on gear for that band and read that many of the 432 EME stations are no moving to higher bands and dishes..therefore most of the activity will be on 2m. So, with an additional 2m12 hanging in the garage along with the M2 power divider I guess I might as well give this all a go on 2m for this winter.)


Thanks for any help...
