Re: Daylight Radio: Crystals?


 

Hello Steve,

that is the approach that a lot of us are using. by building it on boards one block at a time, it seems to make trouble shooting and testing of sections much easier. Good luck on your project.

I¡¯m also gathering daylight radio parts. I¡¯m minded to build as a set of modules each with their own PCB, partly because I¡¯ve promised to learn KiCAD and this seems a good place?to start. I¡¯ve a 3D printer at home in the U.K. and, if the designs are available, I¡¯d be happy to print parts for the permeability tuner for fellow builders. I¡¯m not sure how practical is is to ship things outside the U.K. though.?

Mark,
It might be better to move to 4.915 MHz to avoid the WWV breakthrough. Almost any crystal in HC/49U will do. It is best to measure the motional parameters not required.

I'm gathering parts to build a Daylight Radio. What are the critical specs for the 5 MHz crystals? Capacitance, etc? How critical?
