I recall building a
little noise bridge, based on the 555 timer chip as I recall,
for the same purpose. Worked well until one day I forgot to
disconnect it before transmitting. I rebuilt it, intending to
incorporate it into my homebrew atu? but never got back to
that project.
As I recall that
would have been back in about 1979 and the original design
came from an ARRL Handbook from around that time.

Kees,
I'm fairly new to the BITX group and never heard of his idea.
Thanks for bringing it up again. I have always listened to the
background noise to do my rough tune but like the idea.
