Thanks Lawrence for the memories,

Your scan rung a long dormant bell (nostalgia face here).?
Do they come from the ARRL SSB handbook, where you scanned it from, or an original QST article sometime along 1965-1975?
Can't readily tell, but the pleasure doesn't change.

Ge evening Allison.
I mentioned it because of the two fets used in cascade at the front end and the use of agc.
It's design being nearly 50 years old is a totally different concept.
As you said the semiconductors are obsolete but one could use modern ones if they want to do so.
However, I have scanned the article which is hereto attached.
I scanned it at 600 dpi so I had to split it into three PDF files because of the 20 Mb attachment limit.?
Regards to all.

ARRL Single Sideband for the Radio Amateur 1970 p193 et seq.
"An Engineer's Ham-Band Receiver"

I've duplicated the PLL for another radio and copied ideas for radios I have built.
They worked very well.

Three reasons its not a fit for uBITx......
One: the MOSFets used disappeared in the late 70s.
Two: Its a narrow band front end using varicap tuning, usually called a preselector. Lots of band coils.
Three: is it would require much switching to take it out of the transmit path.
