Ok guys, Wanting to order one, but can't find any info from users for this anywhere. Whats the word on it? Read somewhere else that a guy quit using his because he said it cut 1/3 of his transmit power down when it was in the line. Can't hardly believe this, but I would like to know what the insertion loss for it is also.

Even at 4 watts it would get hot if it loss was 1.5 watts ......

I have a preamp I bought from copper and its loss is very small with 3 "S" units of gain on receive.... my guess is you will find it hard to measure any loss.
On 6 since 66
