Re: BITX QSO Night, Comments
I enjoy the QSO night very much, it has exactly what I like in ham radio.? I enjoy listening in and hearing different conversations around the country.? I like the CQ format instead of a directed

Re: BITX QSO Night, Comments
I listen most Sunday nights and will jump in when I get my disemboweled BITX40 back together. Last night conditions were horrible here, but I heard a number of CQ-BITX's, including Willy. My question

Re: Has anyone Adapting bitx to 6 meters?
I'm also interested in a BITX-6 for portable operation. ?Allison KB1GMX built one 10 years ago, she reported the need for an additional RF amp stage, a better BPF, replacement of the first 2N3904

Very nice. ?Good complete explanation. Thanks! I've never quite figured out the difference between PIN and regular diodes. Apparently a PIN goes into some sort of free-wheeling mode where it

Hi Jerry, The diodes are BA479G and are available from Mouser. ?They are PIN diodes, designed for RF attenuation. ?The voltage controlled RF attenuator in the diagram is variable, attenuating

I doubt you need any special PIN diodes, as the RF signal voltages never exceed the bias voltages. So all diodes could be 1n4148 or 1n914. ?If I am right.

Re: Automatic RF Attenuation Mod for Bitx40
Scratch that, the chokes are there only to block the incoming RF signal.

Re: Automatic RF Attenuation Mod for Bitx40
That looks pretty good to me, may try it. The Bitx40 probably has more RF gain than is required (if you have a decent antenna hooked up to it). So a simple attenuator like this is a good choice,

I set up portable outside the house for about three hours starting at 19:00 Pacific time. I heard a few murmurs on 7277 KHz, but nothing that I could copy. I put out lots of CQs, but eventually
