Re: 30m low output power
Hi,
Verify the total DC Current. I remember about 85-90 mA from my unit when set at 100 mW output when it was in FSK CW mode (now CW).
Is your RF cable OK and correct impedance (75 ohms can throw a

30m low output power
I built my first 30m beacon and it worked first time, but I have not been able to get the power out up to 100mW (20dBm). I only get about 54mW (17dBm) into a 50 ohm load. I measured this several ways

80m kit C9
I have put a 5.6pF miniature ceramic in series with the 1.5-5pF that I used for C9. This gives me a frequency swing of 405Hz between 3500.720KHz and 3501.125Khz which makes tuning to the desired

Has anyone on either group spotted Phil, W3HZZ on 10140040? Been on for 24

Re: QRV 80 meters
I'm not doing very well today :-( that should say 3500.900KHz not
7MHz.
My latest 7MHz MEPT is under construction now to be followed by
one for 30m in the next day or so.

Re: QRV 80 meters
Hi Ken
I built an 80m kit today and had the same problem with the oscillator
being too low. The only trimmer caps I had to hand wouldn't go low
enough so I used a "gimmick" cap same as the

Re: QRSS Receiver completed and connected to grabber
Arv,
I visited your page to read up on the receiver. I am a novice when it comes to theory and such, so it is helpful to read your notes in detail. You mention the use of FT36-43 toroids as cores

Hi Hans, Philip, fellow QRSS knights,
OE1FM has designed and built stand alone beacons that are running in Africa (V53ARC that I seldom receive).
Design is a bit complex but perhaps some idea could

Hi Philip
It could, but not easily!
Well, depends how you look at it. If you just look at the board as a plain 30m transmitter, and then decide to interface it to your PC, and have the PC generate
