Re: manhattan style pads
Yes, true - I found that Rapid Electronics sell a very useful resistor variety pack containing 1000 resistors in 63 values from 4.7ohms to 10M. The number of each varies from 5 to 30 depending how

TV Balun
Hello, I have uploaded a photo of a two-hole "binocular" ferrite core (see G4DFV album). Ashtar, please can you tell me if this is anything like the TV balun that you have used? My core measures

non-ferrite balun cores
BITXers Since the tap washers, faucet washers here in the US, are mylon or similar plastic type material, it would seem that they do not contribute much to the functionality, other that to hold the

Re: Chip pad
Very nice pads, applicable to many projects. I use an 8 pin Motorola microcontroller in my Morse Code training device, and this will be great for those projects too. Info on the MCD is on my webpage

Digital dial for BITX20 using PIC

Sam & other BITXers Your measurements explain my results then. Instead of tap/faucet washers I used 1/4 inch slices cut from "1/2 inch" PVC pipe (the schedule-40 or medium-thick-wall type). These

Re: Chip pad
That's what I do too, when I need to. I use firm pressure on one of those cheap orange plastic "craft" knives. You can produce a nice thin cut with this method. The LM386 in the BITX20 I just mounted

Re: Chip pad
An easier method to make a pad for non-SMD IC's is to use 0.1" Veroboard instead of plain copper laminate. Then only one saw/knife cut is required. KISS? Duncan G4DFV
