Dear forum,
?
==About Crystal Measurements==
At the time I mail to BITX
about this subject,
'actually' I was using a 3.579545 MHz crystal, that
available
at my junkbox and drifting is in this frequency.
( not 12 MHz...
).
?
After that email I buy some crystal,
each 10.00 MHz, 12.00
MHz, 12.288 MHz, and 14.00 MHz.
and make some test for each crystal, using my
vfo and socket
as?Hans's suggest, then connect / monitor at :
shortwave rx, counter 8 leds, counter one-7segment, and
rs232 - pc
monitor ( this rs232 is part of one-7segment counter's add on )
here are the
results:
?
?
The measurements stop at 10.00 MHz on 8 led
cntr,
since the 8 led accuracy is 10.xxx MHz, and I need to
check them on
rs232-pc but happened not displayed.
?
Please suggest what is
possible here.
-Why for 10 MHz higher the circuit doesn't works normally
?
I have read that for a higher frequency, the vfo gain could be drop.
-Does vfo design limit is at 10 MHz ?
-How to fix this
?
?
Thanks.
