Re: Would someone mind explaining to me how the BFO frequency circuit works?

Are you asking about the BFO in the transmitter circuit?

The BFO in the transmitter circuit hetrodynes the 4.9-5.0 MHz single sideband signal with a 12.0 (approx) MHz BFO signal, giving 12+5=17 and 12-5=7 MHz output.? The BitX uses the 7 MHz signal which is amplified and transmitted.?

See the March 2017 QST for a nice article on the original use of this method in the antique radios section.?
