SoftRock40 Rocks!


 

Hi All,

Completed my SoftRock40 this afternoon. Took about 3 hours. I'm using the external power mod (78L05 in place of 2N3904, etc.).Current drain on a 9V battery is 29+ mA. My PC is a 1GHz Dell Optiplex GX200 with sound on the motherboard.

Signals came through upon first powerup. I don't have an XG-1 to perform the image null. (Will borrow one tomorrow). I was able to make a null adjustment while listening to a fairly strong CW signal. Both gain and phase are very close to the middle of the range for a fairly good null. I don't expect much change when I use the XG-1 tomorrow.

On to some on-air listening--

73, Milt
