Minicircuits sells 'connectorized' filters (As opposed to just the SMT
versions of things). Depending on the requirements for the filtering they
might meet your needs, but are not rated for high TX power. As an example:
their SBP-140 roughly comes in around 130-150 MHz for the 3dB passband, with
a minimum insertion loss at 1.83 dB (at 140 MHz). It is rated for .5W
power, and costs around $50. See
(https://www.minicircuits.com/pdfs/SBP-140+.pdf) for more details. They
also have UHF variants. They also have LPF and HPF variations depending on
what you need. My experience with these is that they are decent, but
clearly not quite optimized for the Amateur Radio bands.....so sometimes you
have to hunt around a bit to find something acceptable.

Hi All,
Still working on the 736. When the PS went, it blew
all three fuses. There is a 4 amp external fuse, but
there are two internal fuses that were also blown. I
can't find the internal fuses on any of the schmaticz.
Does any know the current rating of the internal fuses?
The rig is okay, it was the power supply that blew the
fuses.
Thanks again

How do you know there are additional fuses besides the one on the case? I

There are 2 fuses behind the ac power connector. They are 5 amp 250 volt.
They are a bout 3/16 diameter and 3/4 inch long. I do not see them on a

About ARISS:
?
Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) is a cooperative
venture of international amateur radio societies and the space agencies that
support the International Space Station (ISS).? In the United States,
sponsors are the Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation (AMSAT), the American
Radio Relay League (ARRL), the ISS National Lab and National Aeronautics and
Space Administration (NASA). The primary goal of ARISS is to promote
exploration of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEAM)
topics by organizing scheduled contacts via amateur radio between crew
members aboard the ISS and students in classrooms or public forms. Before
and during these radio contacts, students, educators, parents, and
communities learn about space, space technologies, and amateur radio. For
more information, see www.ariss.org.

*IF everyone that uses this service collaborates with any amount possible
it will go longways on supporting this very useful service.*
*Nestor N6CKC DM12 *
Since 2003, Logbook of The World has provided amateur radio operators with
a quick, simple way to claim and verify contacts. This verification
formerly required exchange of paper QSL cards and submission of a paper
application to ARRL ? a slow, environmentally unfriendly, and somewhat
expensive process. Using LoTW today, some digital contacts get
confirmed *within
minutes *of when they conclude.
Because ARRL wants there to be no barriers to stations uploading their
QSOs, LoTW is available to any amateur radio operator at no cost to the
user. However, there are costs incurred by ARRL for Logbook operations run
by ARRL staff members including costs for programmers, equipment, web
access, and user help and support.
*The future of LoTW!*
ARRL Headquarters staff works with a permanent committee to oversee,
maintain, and improve LoTW. Some notable achievements and goals that have
resulted from this work include:
- Continuous reviewing and updating of Logbook processes to facilitate
ease of use
- Adding new ARRL awards as well as awards from other organizations
- Enhancing DX registration through supporting email methods
- Adding support for multiple locations within a single upload, which
supports the rover and mobile communities
- Future growth including a redesign of Logbook's web presence.*day,
LoTW is more important than ever!*
- The worldwide COVID-19 pandemic has significantly slowed international
mail.
- In some countries, the mail has been embargoed.
- Many national ham radio societies have discontinued their QSL bureaus
and it's unlikely that they will reappear.
Your donation to Logbook of The World will support maintenance of the
current database and expansion of the system in the future.
