I think you should make some electronics tutorials, you are an EXPERT and we could definitely benefit from your experience :)
Thank you David! , very nice, but that is a bit to much honer, i just took some schematics from internet and build it. glad you enjoyed it!. Tony
I agree... This is more than just a build. Quite a bit of thought went into this, and there's a lot to learn from the experience you have.
What kind of pot you used ?
You continue to impress…
Thank you !
When I was much younger and with minimal training, I bought a spectrum analyzer to tune several duplexers for a public safety organization I belonged to. It was roughly the same price, as it would have cost to send them out for professional tuning.
I was a total IDIOT and connected the output of a Motorola 110 watt UHF (70cm + up to T-Band) P25/analog repeater DIRECTLY to the input of the Rigol 7nit. POOF and even a bit of smoke…🤣
10+ years later, I’m still clueless, but a bit more experienced. 🙂
I have a Telewave 44 watt meter that does not require “slugs”. It has a non-adjustable RF sampling port built in.
They claim The attenuation is variable, but there’s no external adjustment, so I’ve been way to chicken to connect it up.
This project seems ideal.
Thank you sir, that is very nice to read.
sorry you broke your SA .. auwh!
Yes this simple build can save you your equipment...
all the components are in the list below the video (if still available, it is an older video)
Have fun building!
Since all die-cast aluminium boxes are actually trapezoidal viewed from the sides, I always think they look much better with the lid as the bottom, and labelled that way up! BTW, I wouldn't put 100W into that tabbed 50ohm resistor for too long, they need a LOT more heat-sinking than that metal box alone can dissipate after some minutes of operation. A big finned heatsink thermally pasted and bolted to the top surface would really help there. The little switch could also be bigger as it may not like the SWR if the dummy load fails or it is accidentally flipped at 100W. Those switches are usually rated 250V at 50Hz, not at HF radio frequencies.
Hi Hector, for high power you indeed use the passthrugh and use a proper dummyload. for small power this is ideal for quick testing.
This is just what I was looking for. Thank you for the step by step build of this sampler box, as soon as I get a good VR I'm building my own.
Welcome, glad i could help, also have a look at this one: th-cam.com/video/zqV0aRtgc1c/w-d-xo.html
i test it live and in the end i like the resistor only much better, its more flat then with the coil.
Fantastic video.
Thank you!
Using the short length of wire is what we, in the US, called a "gimmick", which acted somewhat like a capacitor. They were used in some PA neutralization circuits.
Thanks, interesting.. makes sense indeed
I have a 6GHz 100W dummy load. How can I get a proportional sample into the TinySA from the transmission line to get an accurate power measurement?
Nice job!
Thanks!
Why not add this sampler circuit to the inside of an antenna tuner (such as the MFJ Versatuner)? As a matter of fact, I've done that already. By positioning the torroid core around the wire lead to the input to the tuner from the transmitter, the remaining circuitry fits nicely into the Versatuner box. There is plenty of space to mount the pot and sampling jack on the rear of the box. Then, no matter which output is chosen for the Versatuner (dummy load, antenna 1, antenna 2, etc.) an adjustable sampling signal is always available at the sampling jack without siphoning off any of the signal through resistor dividers.
Hi wendell, nice idea
Thanks. I want to make a switchable attenuator
Thankw
I love this design! I have been wondering how to do this very sort of thing for HF and VHF ham. For UHF and higher, I'd just use a directional coupler, but that isn't going to work well for VHF and lower. I watched your functional test, too. Would you mind doing a frequency response test of this roughly for the ham bands, say 2 MHz through 150 MHz? Curious about reflections/loss on the through line and the output levels on sample. It seems to function perfectly at 11 meters. I'm curious if the metal film resistors will go inductive in the VHF range, and I'm curious how linear or even usable the torroid output will be over such a broad range (6+ octaves). Love the idea of a mini-antenna bnc port for sampling. Thank you for sharing this!
I just re-watched your second video - I missed the SA tests that you did the first time I watched it! So looks like the fixed output is flat and the torroid, understandably, isn't. I think I may make one with two resistive taps, one fixed and one variable, and maybe substitute a cermet pot for wirewound. I know cermet isn't as rugged or high quality but it should be less inductive.
Thanks You!
Yes after my test i also was thinking of making the variable with resistors and not the torroid. i did use a wirewound 2Watt pot.
looks good,,do you think the mini switch will do 100 watts? will atch the test , then i will make oen,i do have samplers but like you all in one
Thanks Dennis, the switch is 250Volt 2Amp .. 500Watts on 50Hz .. no idea what it will do on HF, but i will not we switching with power on.
I have a 100W 6GHz dummy load. I want to get a proportional sample into the TinySA from the transmission line to get an accurate power measurement. Any tips?
This could be it, justonly used the fixed resistors, i my test is was very flat over the frequency range. while the pot was not. th-cam.com/video/zqV0aRtgc1c/w-d-xo.html or a professional Bird with 30 or 40 dB output.
th-cam.com/video/i4pF7OIi0KM/w-d-xo.html
Perfectly.
Had to be inserted relay for swich remote.
What's material ferrite coil ???
Hello Natali, it was just something i had laying around.. but watch the 2nd video where i put it to the test, that coil output is not what i like, i will improve it later with resistors, so it is more flat.

@@TonyAlbus
You have a big the distance pins and between the components.
Remote coil from the strap cable.
@@nataliartemenko8722 Yes well spotted, but because of the coil, it will not resonant the same on all frequencies.. so not flat.
Hi Tony,
Nice stuff !!
could you tell us what the make/model value of that resistor in the bottom is ?
and maybe what size toroid coil that is ?
thanks,

Thank you Kevin!, i have now put a list and links to most of the components in the video description.
Do I see thermal labels there? I'm curious how long these will remain readable if you use the dummy load :-)
Lol .. i totally forgot about that... thanks, yess let’s see...
Would like to built the part with the core only but for power till 1.5KW, which core size and type (43 I suppose) would you recommend. Regards.
Hi, i would not know, but i will advise you the have the simple Resistor divider, as it is a lot more flat on freq response.
See my other video were i test it on the SA
nice work
Thank you!
Please what is the part number or ohms you used for the variable pot
All items are in the video description.
wat zijn de waardes van de potmeter, je zegt 47 ohm maar je vermeld 470 ohm verwarrend
Hallo Theo, uit mijn hoofd weet ik het niet,maar ik heb de schemas in de download links in de description. daar staat het vast in. de vaste weesrstanden werkt beter, deze is veel vlakker over frequentie gebied.
What's the toroid number and what size wire for it, did you use?
Hi Tube-Dude, i just took what i had around. but if you watch the second video on this, where i test it on the SA. you will see, its far from flat, and the resistor are.. i would go for the normal resistors
@@TonyAlbus - Thanks for the reply. How about the wire size?
@@tubeDude48 sorry, it was a while ago...
The big black one, is prob, 1,5/2 mm
Thanks for sharing! Dank je wel Tony ik ga hem ook maken. Heb je nog een schema van het design zoals je hem uiteindelijk hebt gemaakt? mvg Leo PA1Ldb
Especially in the schematic the resistance values are not totally clear to me, must be me ;-)
Hi Leo, later this week, i will put the schematics in the video discription
Tony
@@TonyAlbus thanks Tony great videos ! Thank you for sharing I ordered some parts in China so will take a few weeks.
@@TonyAlbus Ow another question Tony, did you end up replacing the coil with a bigger one and maybe add more windings? I saw Peter of TRXBench did 12 windings and I think you did the same?
Thank you very much and welcome.
sorry maar ik vind het niet zo'n goeie video!
werkt het? ik heb het niet kunnen zien?
Hallo HobbyBob, er is inderdaad een opvolg video.
@@TonyAlbus Hallo Tony,
ik ben heel toevallig aan het kijken hoe ik zelf zo iets kan doen!
In mijn geval is het voor zo’n Antenne-analyzer NanoVNA maar dat schijnt ook voorzichtig gedaan te moeten worden.
Had zelf zitten denken contactloos en iets met een potmeter…
( voor mij is het voor wat piratenspul om te kijken of ik geen rommel maak! )
blijf meekijken!
Groetjes uit Rotterdam.
