Re: SDR Reveivers?
EMRFD is an excellent publication but the edition I use ( First Edition, 2nd printing ) has so many errors I have to check the corrections book before I trust anything just to see if an amendment has

Re: Qrp-labs and a Huff and Puff circuit board
Joe I may not be of much help here. I was assuming that your design was a traditional H&P layout. You did express yourself well, I just did not read it well. The G4DXZ design is PIC based with most of

Re: Fried U3s on 12volts. Hopeless?

Chris Ah yes, it takes a little thought, USB RX of WSPR is 1400-1600Hz above Dial frequency. The U3 frequency is true TX frequency. So the PPS is working correctly. 73 Alan G4ZFQ

Re: Qrp-labs and a Huff and Puff circuit board
Hi Arv I think I didn't express it well. All the functionality is internal to the microprocessor except for an RC integrator on the output pin. So a timer is setup to generate a hardware interrupt at

Hi Alan, Oh sorry, should have clarified that. I'm trying to work 40 and 20 meters though the U3S. I'm using the 10m dipole to attenuate the signal further. Yes, I'm picking up spots from other people

Re: SDR Reveivers?

Re: Fried U3s on 12volts. Hopeless?

Hi Chris You may not be doing anything wrong. It's normal for the 27MHz crystal to oscillate 4 or 5 kHz too high. Why do you think the output frequency is 1.4kHz high? How are you measuring it? 73
