BNC T for IF Out

Stupid Question of the Month.....

Is it possible to use a BNC T to drive P3 and a SDRPlay at the same time?
Is there enough drive to do this?

Back to your regular programming.

Re: BNC T for IF Out

You should use a splitter with isolation. Mini-Circuits sells them.

Re: BNC T for IF Out

The P3 has an IF Out jack. I have connected that to a SDRPlay RSP1 with
good results. No splitter or tee required. You must flip the little switch
on the back of the P3 to enable IF Out.

In reply to this post by John Simmons

If you're feeding the P3 from a K3s IF OUT, why not just use the pass through
feature on the P3? It has an IF OUT port. That's the route I'm thinking of
going. Would that not work?

In reply to this post by John Simmons

Why not just use the IF OUT BNC jack on the P3 (right above the IF IN). And flip the small slide-switch up.

I just bought one off of ebay, for around 20 bucks... Go to ebay and
look for mini-circuits. When you find something, Google that part
number and you can discover what it is...

Re: BNC T for IF Out

In reply to this post by Leroy Buller

A 3dB splitter with secondary output is built in to the P3. Switch it on
and connect your SDR of choice to the IF out connector.

I have an SDRplay RSP1 connected to mine which allows use of the
spectrum facility in Win4K3, N1MM and DXLabs on the big screen as well
as the P3. Being an RSP1 you can of course use any of the software that
supports it.

Set aside a good bit of time, it's quite a rabbit hole and getting the
settings just right is not always trivial.

Isnt there a IF out jack on the rear of the P3 already for that,
you have to switch it on is all.
