Comments: Open Box Apache Labs ANAN-8000DLE. Some handling of the unit is noticeable. Packaging shows signs of wear from opening / shipment.
The ANAN-8000DLE HF & 6M 200W SDR Transceiver meets and exceeds the requirements of even the most discerning Amateur Radio Operator. It is based on the work of the OpenHPSDR community.
Keeping in mind various new cutting edge technologies, they have been implemented into the radio. It has been re-designed from scratch; the design successes of the previous generation's hardware has been improved in this new implementation.
The ANAN-8000DLE uses an entirely new redesigned transmit chain, preserving PureSignal (Predistortion) and the result is astounding IMD performance. The typical transmit IMD distortion is about a 1000 times lower than that achieved by a typical modern transceiver available today. It is the world’s first Amateur Radio transceiver to use a 50v LDMOS device in the finals.
The ANAN-8000DLE includes two phase synchronous front ends to enable Diversity reception.
An internal four phase low noise boost supply is used to convert 13.8v to 50v for the finals. This enables the user to have the flexibility of using industry standard 13.8v DC as well as battery power whilst at the same time the radio provides all the advantages of the 50v LDMOS amplifier.
The front panel Display is microprocessor driven and displays all critical parameters such as Forward and Reflected Power, SWR, Current, Voltage, and Temperature. The microprocessor also provides real time protection for all these parameters.
Please note that output on HF bands may well exceed 200Ws, it is recommended that the User cap the output at 200Ws, on 6M it is normal to have maximum output between 175-200W.
