| LC-1 | Some radios have built-in antennas for the AM broadcast band (MW) and no connection for an external AM antenna. To connect to these radios use the Palomar LC-1 loop coupler. It takes the LA-1 loop amplifier output and converts it to a magnetic field that couples to the radio’s antenna. AM reception is much improved. For example, installing AutoCAD 2015 as a point product requires product key 001G1, but installing AutoCAD 2015 from the Autodesk Product Design Suite Ultimate 2015 requires product key 781G1. Product keys are required for installation of Autodesk products and are used to differentiate products that are both sold independently and as part of a product suite. The same version of AutoCAD is in both software packages but the product key differentiates one package from the other. Bestsync 2015 serial key. | Manual | $59.95 | |

| MDB-2 | Magnetic Dipole Balun – The Palomar MDB-2 is a magnetic dipole balun replacing the center insulator. It is for receive only (no transmit!) for 500 kHz to 30 MHz. It converts the balanced signal from the dipole to an unbalanced output for the coaxial cable. It prevents signal pickup on the outside of the coax thus reducing noise pickup. It also connects both sides of the antenna to the coax shield (at DC) so static charges can drain to ground instead of going through the radio. The balun has an So-239 to accept a standard PL-259 connector. (thanks to Fred N8EKU for picture and description) | |||

| PD-800 | PD-8OO works with transceivers that have three oscillators in their heterodyne scheme. One usually a crystal oscillator, another a VFO or variable frequency oscillator, and the other a fixed frequency “carrier oscillator” . Three cables bring these signals to the Digital Display where, in two mixers, the exact operating frequency is regenerated. This Is displayed on a six digit numerical readout.Digital Frequency Counter – HW-101, 75S-1, KWM-2, TS-520, 1011D, FT-101, 75S-3, Sx-146/HT46, SB-401, HW101, SB-100, SB-303, Eldico S-119/R-104, 75A4, Yaesu FT-40B, Sommerkamp TS-288A. | INFO | ||
