Re: Project #2 -- Colpitts Crystal Oscillator
I just ordered ten boards from my new friends at allpcb. They must have a pretty good marketing budget to absorb all the DHL charges! I am building the colpitts circuit from K7QO's notebook manhattan

Re: Frequency Counters for Matching Crystals
Sorry for the misleading model no.? It is the HP 5382A.? ?Thanks for comments and suggestions.

Re: Project #2 -- Colpitts Crystal Oscillator
Hi Jim, well, I did build the CCO Chuck is showing on page 112 of his great QRP Lab Notebook V.6.31. This original G3UUR design is very stable with the second transistor as a buffer stage. By

NC40A BOM v1.17 errata?
Just did a quick search of the posts in the group, but did not find an answer...I'm wondering if anyone else has noted that v1.17 of the NC40A BOM has R6 listed in 2 places with different part

Re: Things to watch out for building crystal oscillators
Thinking about this a bit more ... once C17 is properly set it may be that the setting of C34 is trivial (well more or less). Since the transmit sidetone is generated by listening to the transmitted

Re: breadboard for PCB circuit modules
I already have a few breadboards designed. See http://www.fishpool.org.uk/protoboards.htm These are all for muppet style construction. They have the advantage that the pad spacing is correct for

Re: Things to watch out for building crystal oscillators
Hi Doug --- The other two crystals both have trimmers associated with them. Should be able to adjust them a few hundred cycles. The real questions: Would we actually prefer X5 or X6 to be some amount

Re: Project #2 -- Colpitts Crystal Oscillator
I ordered Chuck's boards for the Oscillato from Allpcb late Friday evening.? I checked their site this morning, Sunday morning,? and the boards have been fabricated and ready to ship.? They must

Re: breadboard for PCB circuit modules
Would a Designer Dream Board #1 fit your needs?? Or maybe the set of a #1 and #2 board, depending on what your are trying to build. My DD Boards are larger than the magic 100mm X 100mm required by

Re: breadboard for PCB circuit modules
Have a look at the file Breadboard.pdf (page 5 of the list of files) and let me know if that is the sort of thing you are looking for. I can either make gerbers of them or modify them to suit what you

Re: Project #3 -- Comb Generator
More great work going on out there. This time from DuWayne KV4QB. Because he had a DIL 4060 he modified my layout - still using Muppet construction. He also modified it to use a copper ground plane on

Re: Project #2 -- Colpitts Crystal Oscillator
Would there be any benefit to adding a buffer amplifier between the oscillator and the counter? Thank you. Jim Pruitt WA7DUY

Re: Frequency Counters for Matching Crystals
Howard, I have an HP 5384A counter with an external reference input, also. I bought a Thunderbolt GPS frequency standard with a 10 MHz output that I use as my external reference.? This gives a very

breadboard for PCB circuit modules
has anyone ever created gerber files for a breadboard type of PCB for use in a circuit with and without an IC in it? somewhat like the boards you used to be able to get at Radio Shack. these mini

Re: Things to watch out for building crystal oscillators
better use Multilayer capacitors wiktyh leads. I also suggest for each crystal wait for 15 sec before recording its freqncy. Let it settle. You may try to avoid air thrust on the jig and crystal under

Things to watch out for building crystal oscillators
I ordered one thousand 4.096 MHz crystals from China Monday. They came last night at 9:00 PM. Tonight I decided to sit down and see how many matched sets of 4 within 10 Hz I could get from a bag of

Mike, While serving the Indian Telecom, there was a stage of clock synchronisation with atomic clok for older switches. I had to use HP equipment, a counter.?To be sure, first I had to cabilbrate the

Re: Frequency Counters for Matching Crystals
What is going to be the stability of your 4.9512 clock you will be using as reference frequency? It better be really good. I'm guessing your counter may have a more stable reference frequency built in
