Yes and no but mostly yes. the original Bitx used 1n4148 diodes and toroid transformers. The 2N2xx as has been discussed recently also used 1n4148 diodes and toroid transformers as do many other

Re: "A Binaural IQ Receiver" QST Mar 1999 Campbell KK7B
I have also wondered if a double balanced diode ring mixer with the usual ft43-10's will work in place of the modules as they are usually listed. I can make a DBDRM for a few cents compared to

Jerry, I will look at your circuit. One of things was wondering about was whether diode ring mixers would wprk in lieu of the minimodules. I suppose the only group project PCB possible would be from a

Thanks for the new group. Homebrew is by far the most interesting part of the hobby. Currently working on a transceiver. It started on 40m and currently works on 60m. I plan to make it properly

The Sandford Wattmeter is temporarily discontinued but I believe Kanga UK may have 1 or 2 left (none in the states).? It's a fantastic power meter but does not measure SWR.? The "Oner" Stockton

Just to clarify (correct me, please, if I'm wrong):? The "RevE" designation refers only to the schematic, not to the manual. Agree--it's an excellent manual. Jerry AA6KI Tucson

Re: Stockton vs Resistive SWR Bridge
I have and use both types.? The resistive bridge has the advantage that the transmitter never sees an SWR above 3:1, even across an open or a dead short, so it's easier on the transmitter.? I break

Graham, your understanding is generally correct as long as it¡¯s not a ¡°derivative work¡± of Dr. C¡¯s artwork. A simple approach, of course, is to just ask Dr. Campbell if he owns the copyright
