    WTB: 7.8mhz ssb filter

    I'm looking for a 7.8mhz crystal filter as used in some cb radios. usb and lsb crystals to suit same would be useful but I can live without them.

    Hf band pass filters head scratcher?

    Thanks for answering my question CK. As the 850 died with me and was sold on I cannot check it again but I distinctly remember a relay clicking in it and the receive dropping out momentarily on 7, 7.5, 27, 27.5 .Perhaps I am forgetful of other bands but truth is I didn't spend much time...

    Hf band pass filters head scratcher?

    I was looking at different radio designs on the net and the amateur band only radios have a single bandpass filter switched in and out for each ham band. But I have used many general coverage radios for example the kenwood ts850 which as you tune you hear a relay switch at every half megahertz...

    What kind of adhesive for transistor strips?

    i just filed 5mm of circuit board off each end of the strips on mine, then flattened down the copper and soldered it on. cheaper than epoxy and you can replace the pill strips if you need to.

    Introducing the CBduino

    I do not know the minimum step size on that board I linked you to so I do not know then if it would be suitable as a pll replacement. The programming may not be easier but with the proper use of loops it need not be tedious to maintain or repetitive to write. There is example code provided...

    Introducing the CBduino

    my bad, i know, it's not finished but i hoped you could tidy it up. i dont have the arduino lcd and wire.h libraries installed so i couldnt compile it, i just rushed it together in case you wanted to add bands easily. so now you know about while and if/else loops. and i've never programmed for...

    Introducing the CBduino

    It's a comprehensive and well done project but there is a reason these mods have been superseded by dds vfos, this type of mod won't make the radio tune between channels.http://www.adafruit.com/products/2045 here is a vfo for your arduino for 8 dollars that doesn't need any pll traces cut or...

    Good info link about Bias

    it's very comprehensive and gives every resistor value one could need, so probably the best openly documented circuit i've seen. a pity however that it doesn't include thermal tracking and integrating that in a half assed manner would spoil the linearity.

    "New Posts"

    Ive never found it a problem. The new post page changes in under an hour so in all honesty how often do you need to check new posts?. Also its easy to see which posts you have read already because they are coloured in a lighter shade of blue.
