Re: Multi-function test jig idea for homebrew radios.
I think I have bad news for you William.? In the order process, when you submit the Gerbers, an engineer on the team will inspect the board.? If it does have multiple boards, separated by regions

Re: SST-20 from Wayne Burdick, N6KR - Manhattan Circuit Construction Madness Project
Daniel Interesting. I imagine the copyright is to disallow someone from commercially selling that manual or large portions of it, likely with a kit. QRP rigs are published to encourage experimenters

Re: Multi-function test jig idea for homebrew radios.
Great ideas. How about making a 100mm X 100mm PCB layout of these circuits, generating the Gerber files and turning on the serration flag so you can submit them to a board house offering a special 5x

Re: WWV receiver
Does anyone have the schematic/information for the simple W1AW receiver? I only vaguely remember seeing it and I believe it was offered as a commercial product at one time. I always wanted one but it

Re: Mad Hatters
The 2SC5706 5W RF Amp (FT=400) which came in the 5Watter is still available at kitsandparts. But the 2SC5551A 1W RF Amp (FT=3,500 MHz) is Out of Stock. I am no engineer, so I have no idea where to

Re: Mad Hatters
Daniel, The TI chip was test of a video amplifier.? It was not a drop in replacement. The point, I think, is that we have to find someone who has experimented with them to point out pros and cons.?

Chuck, About the headers - yeah, I like the idea of using an IC socket and headers than doing dead bug style.? Good idea here. And I want to build a SST-20.? Is the Video Op Amp TI TL592P a drop-in

Re: SST-20 from Wayne Burdick, N6KR - Manhattan Circuit Construction Madness Project
Hmmmm Once I find a schematic on the internet or some publication, it's fair game for me to replicate it in whole or part.? Period.? Take a look at my QRZ page and see all those stolen designs!?

Re: SST-20 from Wayne Burdick, N6KR - Manhattan Circuit Construction Madness Project
Jerry, Chuck wants to get permission because the SST-20 is copyrighted - the radio design - manual - schematic. So, out of respect for Wayne - both were originally part of NorCal Club. So, whatever
