[Discuss-gnuradio] Damaged LNA on the DBSRX board

[Kelley, Clifford W]

We've noticed that it is not difficult to damage the MGA-82563 GaAs MMIC 
amplifier on the DBSRX board.  Other than replacing it (if you have that kind 
of equipment and skills) does anyone know of a suitable replacement part?  
We've actually used a wire on one of our boards to bypass the amplifier.  In 
doing this we lose about 10 dB of amplification and increased noise.  Does 
anyone know of a better solution?

Thanks,

Cliff
