Re: 2n2xx Transceiver


 

I would be interested in maybe 2 boards. Gotta have something to keep me
out of trouble during the winter.

A long time ago, NORCAL offered a transceiver kit designed by Jim
Kortge, K8IQY.? It was called a2N2XX? as it could be built on 20, 30, or
40 meters.? It was unique as it used a lot of 2N2222 transistors and did
not use any IC chips.? It worked extremely well.? There was a reflector
set up for this radio, [email protected]?? It has 73 members and is a
pretty quit reflector these days.? But, a few days ago one member popped
up and asked about getting a PC board for the project.? K8IQY popped up
and said MAYBE.? That got me going and I sent out a few e-mails to the
group as I was very excited to think a board may indeed become available
for the project from Jim.? But to my dismay only a couple others showed
interest.? (Maybe the members of that group all have one and are not
interested in building another one.)? I love to build so maybe I am
alone.? I bring it up here because maybe the members of this group would
be interested in building an all transistor mainly made up of 2N2222
transistors transceiver. As I said, Jim Kortge, the designer said he
would consider a PC board run, but I am sure he would not want to do it
for just a couple guys.? You can read up on this NORCAL kit at:
Maybe there is some interest in
this project on this reflector.? I also think being an all transistor
radio, it lends itself well for learning how to trouble shoot a radio.?
(Sorry for the long post.)
