Re: BITX VXOs
Hi miguel,
i am doing an experiment on 12MHz xtal VXO, i could get 35kHz or more range to it,
the only thing is i use ony 1 xtal, getting more range, means getting more drift.
here's the details for

Congratulations on your joining the "BITX-On-The-Air" group. Your web page looks quite interesting as well. I liked the morse sound effects between pages.
Did you use the original H&P

First QSO with BITX17 !
Dear BITX-homebrew-gents,
This afternoon, I made my first QSO on 17m with the BITX17 !
I am really surprised. My qrp RTTY signal from the west of Holland
reached Greece SV with RST 559.
I used

Re: BITX VXOs
Dear Miguel,
Hi!
This all is very interesting. I feel some correction is in order for 80mts range mentioned. But what I am more interested is the 18mhz tuning you mention, it makes making a 20mtr

Re: BITX VXOs
Ola Miguel,
I like to see some picts of your super VXO's Miguel. Great coverage with only 3 xtals. Is the output stable over the whole range? Do you use one or more (switchable) coils in series with

BITX VXOs
Hello
I build 3 VXOs called "hipervxos" for 40m, 20, and 10m to use with BITX,
They use a classic Colpits oscilattor with 3 parallel xtals and a
series inductor (special) and a series variable

Re: Good Job guys!
Tnx for your reply dear Mike,
I did the measurement with a Philips low-budget "world" receiver
(with BFO :-) )
connected to a Celeron 266 MHz PC using MixW2.10 and I suspect this

Impressive Ron, Not a criticism, but I note some products of the VFO

noticable when the HuffPuff is operative due to the other

Dear Troy,
Would like to inform you that I included the Huff&Puff circuit into
my BITX17 (converted BITX20 for 18.068...18.168 MHz). In my Photobox
(PA2RF) you can see 2 pictures of the VFO

Re: Good Job guys!

H&P stabilisation would hold your frequency to within a Hz or two for
the long term, thus minimizing even a slow drift after warm up. Hans
has come up with several minimalist stabilizer designs

Thanks Arv,
I've had the AFU callsign for about ten years and you're the first

The BITX has also been used for CW. Several builders have added a center-of-the-filter
BFO oscillator that serves both send and receive CW functions. I took the simple way and

Re: Another slight modification to the BITX17 PA
Hi Ray,
Yes, you are right. Just QRP should have been sufficient. In fact 2 Watts represents a lot of electromagnetic RF energy.
And if propagation conditions do not let you down a lot can be
