I have a question about the Micro-Amp build. I was putting it together this monring and there is a diode on the schematic and in the parts. But the build...
Chris, You found my first documentation error! The Diode is for polarity protection and does not need to be installed. I suggest that you do install it. If...
Today I received the new firmware PIC version from Byon and tested it to make sure that it would control the Micro-Trak FA (frequency Agile) hardware version....
Does anyone have experience crimping bnc connectors on RG174? I'm making a cable with a male sma on one end and a male bnc on the other. I had no trouble...

Well, enough people have asked about producing an integrated Micro- Trak/ 8 Watt final amp that I have ordered boards for my design. ( I always order lots of...
Wonderful! Thank you so very much! I am thinking of mounting one on top of my mobile with a solar panel and battery, do we know the current draw of the...
Gavin, I estimate 1200 mA at 12 volts @ 8 Watts out, during transmission ( 1/3 second with Mic-E) and about 10 mA in standby. You can turn the Amp down of ...
Hello, My question is, will the Micro-amp be compatible with the older pocket tracker. Meaning that can I still connect a wire from the micro-amp to pin 1 of...
Jim, I don't see why not. I don't know how much current the Pocket Tracker requires from pin 1 to key, but the Micro-Amp only needs about 3 volts at 1 mA to ...
Allen, Thank you very much for your quick response. I do own the Pocket Tracker, and I have ordered the Micro-Amp, Haven't received it yet. When I do I will...
Jim, Last I heard from Byon, he had good stock levels on the Amps, so you will probably have it soon. Would you be kind enough to post your results to this ...
Allen, Yes, will do. Byon has allready shipped it, I just haven't received it yet. Probably tied up at the border. jim VE7JSE ... will ... to this ... all-new...
Would some members of the group care to share how they've packaged/deployed the MicroTrak? I have not ordered one yet, but I am curious to see (hopefully)...
The new unit is 1 X 4.7 and will weigh less than 2 ounces. You can turn the power down to 1 Watt. I don't have any plans to build a unit that is capped at one...
Gavin, I have PC boards on order, and hope to start production within 7 days. I will be sending the first units to Byonics as assembled and tested PC boards. ...
We do alot of public service stuff, eg bike races, triathlons, and other things and it would be nice to know where everyone is at .... I would like to see how...
Gavin, Have you tried the regular Micro-Trak 300? My calculations suggest that the new unit will be precisely 26.66666666667 times better ( okay, so I am only ...
The standard Micro-Trak is 1 X 3.3 inches and has a power output of 300 mW's. This does not suck batteries dry too fast, and I think the others on this groups...
Gavin, I would ask other users in the area if they can use their low power handi-talkies. Where I live, in Napa, CA, I am able to hit a digipeater 20 miles...
