Thanks for advice dear Chris,
Saw on the forum that the BITX17 already seems to exist!
OK, past couple of days I started to setup the power supply unit
capable of delivering the required voltages.
Also did some trials with a VFO working from 8.060 - 8.180 MHz. (+ 10
MHz IF will give the proper range) Frequency range seems to be ok but
stability is bad. After 20 minutes waiting freq shift of 1 KHz still
exists. I think I will order some components for a HuffAndPuff
circuit for stabilizing purposes.
Or maybe a FET Hartley oscillator. We'll see.
Bye for now and till next time.
Dank voor je reactie Chris. Leuk om te zien dat andere om druk met de
bitx in de weer zijn.

Dear Ron,
splended idea to make it for 17 mtrs.
In your message you asked for suggestions, you want to have more
suggestions then all the postings in this newsgroup, including
Photos, Files etc?
Can you be more precisely what else you need?
By the way, you can show your progress in this newsgroup, you do
not
need an other website for it.
Best regards,
Chris.
Dear bitx20 homebrewers,
I intend to build the BITX for the 17m WARC band (18.068-18.168
MHz). My ultimate goal will be to work psk31 with this splendid
rig.
Has anyone suggestions to convert bitx20 to bitx17. VFO must be
changed of course and RF filters... I intend to keep my progress
updated on my website (see below).
