QSL Raj on the kiss mode. I does make sense to have a VHF rx for 3-400 ohms. Bulk order of crystals. You could interest a lot of budding hams, who are on the waiting mode. 73,s Paddy vu2pep --- On Wed, 6/1/11, Raj <vu2zap@gmail.com> wrote:

Well Ganesan, with the advent of cheap Chinese handies available in the 2-3 k bracket, is it worth making a 2 m receiver, which will cost 2k+? A hf rx for 40 or 20m or a cheap DSB trx for 40m will bring in interested home-brewers. 73,s Paddy vu2pep --- On Tue, 5/31/11, kumar gautam <fromgautam@yahoo.co.in> wrote:

Hi! Raj,
MC13135 and its earlier variant MC3362 is still available at Delhi if anyone interested. Lately I stopped going in for complete discreet ones cause found it easier modify surplus items, but that barely scrathes the itch of a totaly homebrewed project.

- For two meters I would suggest the obvious "kiss" mode.
- I will leave out the PLL/DDS part out of discussion for now. We have others who can suggest.
- One chip of the series MC3357, 3359 and so forth.. will do the major task of conversion, limiting & detection! These devices are designed for cordless phones and are for NBFM.
- Some thoughts:
- You have the front end built in the later chips. Others require the first mixer e.g. 3357
- Some chips require a discriminator coil/cap and others resonator.
- 10.7 or 21.4 Mhz & first IF 455 second IF (first IF depends on your junk box xtals)
- Audio stage:
- No more LM386 please. It took many years to get out of the clutches of LM380!
- Now I suggest the TDA2822 stereo amp in push pull mode. I found this chip very
- stable and took a lot of abuse. I got a great sound in my RX project. Cheap!

RE: [HamBrewers] RE: Ham brewers are you there?
Dear Paddy,
thank you for the reply,
yes you are right
first we will start do this 2Meter receiver and then we can do a 40/20Meter RX one bye one.
we have lot of time and lot of projects.
Whoever intrested in the first project can do them, others can contribute on to the next project.
the target design of this project will be less than 2K (Iam not sure abt exact cost till final working board is made)
73,
N.Ganesan
