  • Dive into the world of radio frequency with us as we explore the RF Sampler from Electro-Resale. This video will demystify what an RF Sampler is and how it functions in the 1-50MHz -30dbm range.
    We'll break down the science behind the RF Sampler, how it samples radio frequency signals, and why it's an essential tool for anyone interested in digital and analog electronics. Whether you're a seasoned tech enthusiast or just starting your journey, this tutorial is sure to add value to your learning process.

    Yes, I know my hands are large/fat. It's because of a heart condition I suffer from called Congestive Heart Failure. Here's a link to some information about CHF: cle.clinic/2TdS2Ux
    One of the symptoms is that it causes fluid retention, mostly in the hands, feet/ankles, and face..

    That spectrum analyzer is very nice. Lot's to learn.

    That looks like a quality unit ...... I built one about 4 or 5 years ago , dual BNC outputs for the scope .... 1 SO-239 for the input and a SO-239 for the output that goes to my dummy load ..... I forget who I got the schematic from ..... it's a sweet lil unit though ....

    Resister values are printed on the board under the resisters. You got the 47K right. The other I couldn't make out.

    Paul, good video about a guy in Kansas that makes very decent products. I have bought a number of items from that gentleman. (He's a Brit don't you know.) And, like you observed, I've often said, "I could build this. Why am I buying it? However, when the item arrives, the quality is worth it. I won't have to waste my time scrounging parts, testing, etc.
    I follow your videos and feel badly about your health problems but overjoyed by your spirit and perseverance.
    By the way, happy to welcome you into the amateur radio ranks and applaud your video efforts there.
    Final comment: try the antenna tap into a dummy load and see if anything is different.
    ..waiting for the dBm video.

    I didn't know you're from 8-land. N8CA here in NW Ohio. Looks like you're having lots of fun with the new test equipment.

    Nice video. Looks like you like the Uni-T line. What's the make & model of that neat spectrum analyzer?

    RF Sampler circuit also "Demodulates" the AM waveform? but its negative -30dB so you have to measure the dBm peak of the frequency and ADD 30dB to the dBm level

    it figures, when I need one they are " OUT OF STOCK" dang it.....Paul good video as always..

    Fascinating video. Thanks. BTW... The light through the window wasn't too bad but the glare from your forehead .......!! 🤪

    When would you use an RF sampler vs a directional coupler?
    My application is for permanent attachment to the HF transmission line.
    If the impedance / SWR is not consistent, will that be an issue for the resistive sampler?

    Interesting. As already mentioned the resistor values are printed on the pcb.
    The manual mentiones something like suitable from 1 to 50 MHz. However you used it in the 2 meter band ( around 145 MHz). Or did i not understand it correct? '73

      I don't own this model, however the one that's in the metal case...essential the same thing, different layout...also rated at 50MHz....I have used mine on all bands up to 33cm...haven't tried it on 23cm...haven't needed to yet... 73's OM. ~Jack, VEG

    SO = Socket SO239 (Female)
    PL = Plug PL259 (male)
    I think I may need one of those.👍

    Impedance match as well, does not cause loading.

    Paul, would you like a three fives bare board? I could send one to you. was at a fleamarket yesterday bought two so could send one to you.
