Where can I find bidirectional Rf amplifier?
(OP)
Hi I need to find a bidirectional rf amp, surface mounted at 2.4 GHz. I could use switches and two rf amps but I would rather not to(I have one rx/tx path).I haven't found something though I have searched the net :)
Thanks in advanced!

RE: Where can I find bidirectional Rf amplifier?
There is no such thing as a bidirectional amplifier, RF or not. The closest you can get is a transceiver, which is two RF amplifiers with switches.

Bidirectional amplifiers in the same frequency range are called oscillators.
RE: Where can I find bidirectional Rf amplifier?
As VE1BLL mentioned there has to be a frequency difference. It need not be in a different band. In the Ham Radio world at 2 meters the split difference is 600KHz. At 2.4 G I am assuming that the resonators would be rather small. Of course, good isolation is required. Don't think that the Hams are setting up 2.4 GHz repeaters but might be a worthwhile read of their microwave literature.

Very well put! VE1BLL. PLS.
