Charles Kitchen, N1TEV SK
Gang, I first discovered Charles Kitchen when I started looking for regenerative receiver circuits many years ago. A few days ago I watched this very informative youtube video in which Mike Murphy

Fun With BJT (Bipolar Junction Transistors) For Biz Admin Majors
Folks, Chuck mentioned scoring a bag of 2N3904s and I similarly discovered a mess o' 2N4401s. Suspecting that there may be caches of the popular NPNs (and their matching PNPs) around, here's a sample

Re: New single band superheterodyne transceiver
The IF is 12.288 MHz which works well for 40 meters because it far away from the LO and band frequencies. For LSB the LO is in the 5 MHz range. The crystals I used for the filter are CTS MP122's:

Re: New single band superheterodyne transceiver
I rolled my own for both the mixer and the product detector. Its a diode ring DBM.? It consists of 2 trifilar wound FT37-43's with #30 AWG magnet wire, and 4 BAT54 diodes. The first mixer has a 100
Re: New single band superheterodyne transceiver
What is your I.F. frequency? I'm curious because I have a similar superhet receiver using the HYCAS board and an 8 MHz I.F. I'm currently using a Si5351a for both L.O. and BFO. It sounds pretty good

Re: Digi-key
I looked forward to Doug Demaw¡¯s articles. I built a two band version of the progressive communications receiver from about 1981. I remember how impressed I was that the direct conversion part

Re: Digi-key
Alas, I yearn for the [late] 70s when I semi-accidentally subscribed to Wayne Green's 73 Magazine. From 1977 through the early 80s, each magazine was chock full of projects, tech articles, and general

New single band superheterodyne transceiver
Here's my latest rig (see pic below). It is a 10 Watt PEP single conversion transceiver using 6 printed circuit boards in a copper clad PCB enclosure. I've been having a lot of fun talking to my

That's interesting Nick. He even acknowledges the small amount of extra capacitance that this technique introduces, between the pads and the board. Dave AA7EE
