Font used for FRG-7
Marcel, that is excellent work. Just a suggestion to increase the versatility of your design dramatically. As you know, the VCO frequency of the FRG 7 runs from 55 to? 85 mHz with a 55mHz 1st IF. The very common Racal R17 uses the same Wadley loop design, with slightly different VCO frequencies, this one spans 40 to 70 mHz with a 1st IF of 40 mHz.. IF you could find? a little room to program a few extra? bytes into the "megacycle" routine, a keypress perhaps to alter a pointer to a lookup table, this would increase interest enormously..... there are many Wadley loop receivers? out there.that are lacking a good readout, I think interest would be very high. I would buy two without question. |
Hi Chris,
Coming back to your question concerning the MHz readout, it seems my proto is working well.
I could stay to the Arduino, but I had to squeeze everything out. I'm now at 99% of the memory.
I also switched to 7 segment characters. I've included some pictures.
Now I can start to design a new PCB. Hope to have it ready within a few months.

Regards, Marcel

Hi gbrandy and Randy, thanks for your reply. I'll give a try.

Note the serif on the number “1” as well as the curves on the 3, and 5, and the straight vertical sides of the zero. Link: |
开云体育If you can get a reasonably detailed picture of the dial, there are several web sites that can try to identify the font from a picture you upload to them. I believe I’ve used this one in the past: ? ? From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Marcel, de PA8MA

Hi Chris, yes that is my goal. But it is more effort then expected. The Arduino run out of memory and the speed is too low. So I have switch to an ESP32. And a redesign of the pcb. Op wo 26 jun. 2024 12:55 schreef Chris Rogers via <crvee8=[email protected]>: Hi Marcel, |
