Re: Re. problem with crystal oscillators
Chris, & others...
Please take a closer look at the BITX IF string without any crystal
filter. There would be no control of the passband and thus no way to
tune a specific frequency, other than as a

Re: CRYSTAL MEASUREMENTS
Dear forum,
The problem of my crystal measurements has solved :-).
Thank you for your advice :-).
I try change the transistors from BC547B to 2N3904.
(maybe I got 2nd grade quality of BC547B)

Re: Re. problem with crystal oscillators
Hi,why the intention to add one x-tal as a filter if you want to
generate DSB?
Just remove the current IF filter from the design and you have
already DSB!
By doing this, you can also investigate

IF filter passband measured
Hello,
I have just uploaded a file with the results of my measurements of
the IF filters passband.
The set-up was a DDS-VFO as a signal source and a HF millivoltmeter
as a detector.

Re. problem with crystal oscillators
MILAREPA@.............
It would appear from your chart that the higher frequency crystals may
not be oscillating, or that your frequency counter may not be capable of
counting above 10 MHz.

Measuring Crystal & IF Filter Frequencies
Hi
Hans' comments (see below) are very appropriate to the measurement of
Crystal frequencies. I too found that if you solder the crystals in

Binocular Cores
I have found a 'source' of minature binocular balun cores in old UHF
TV tuners and computer UHF modulators. there are usually, it
