Dear Paddy,
 
 Just back from Hyderabad after successfully conducting 40 Mtr RX workshop.
 
 When you mentioned a cheap HF rx couldnot hold this info!

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.

Dear friends and OM,

i had seen this group inactive for couple of months.

as interest regarding Ham brewers gone down???????

are everybody busy???????
 
I wish to make this group a active one ,share the knowledge,do projects as DIY.
 
FIRST OF THE THING LET WE DO A SIMPLE 2METER VHF RECEIVER WITH SPEC AS
 
 
Specifications of the proposed receiver are:

  • Mosfet based front end LNA
  • 144-146 MHz tuning range
  • LCD display of frequency and signal strength
  • Rotary encoder for tuning
  • Selectable tuning step size (5, 10, 100 kHz and 1 MHz)
  • PLL synthesized tuning
  • Full microcontroller controlled band scanning capability
  • Dual conversion superhetrodyne (10.7 MHz and 455 kHz) with Crystal and Ceramic IF filtering
  • Squelch function
  • Volume control and audio amplifier / speaker built in.
 
 
 
WITH GREAT EXPERIENCE AND KNOWLEDGE VU2ZAP CAN HELP US.
 
LET WE START THE PROJECT?????
 
Ready???
 
73,
N.Ganesan

Re: [HamBrewers] 144 - 146 Mhz (2M) Rx thoughts

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.

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!
Emacs!

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)

Dev,
 
  Ceramic disc is available in shops selling comps for TV repair , most of the time its rated for 1-4Kv and the values i have seen and brought before is 120PF 330 390 and 470, 0.01uf is much more easy to get.  
But the sad part is none of the shops are now stocking electronic comps as the margin is thin and also not many is doing comp level servicing.I remember having brought this around 5yr back in velachery itself now the same shop is selling only electrical items !
 
I have used the design with 610 two in push pull with around 120W max.

Dear Satyan (or shall I address you as my dear Sarath!),
 
 I have seen those circuits and we do use them in Morning QTH ,,,,, BUT..... the rating for those Capacitors as specified is a bit on the lower side, you see my dear friend ...... It is okay for them as they can make a few ohms in after sales etc...... but Knowing fully well 200 watts implies 141Volts on DUMMY load I would like to use higher rating......

Dear All,
 
 As you might have seen the pics in the previous mail we have managed to combine two PAs and get almost 100watts but.......
 
 100 watts on dummy load is 100volts peak and alas all our Capacitors are rated for 100Volts only so obviously we got to run at 73watts or below for safety!( on real ANTENNAS, not NOT DUMMYS)
 
 
 Now, dear all could you suggest some vendors/ shops/ types for Capacitors which would work let us say at 200 volts or more so that we could run a lil more output; somewhat like 400w d.c.input (I am afraid that's all we are allowed to run in our beloved India shining!) And just for info I am using a Wilkinson Combiner to get more output ( and run those Mosfets very Cool!!!!!) We would need the following values:
 
 
 47pF,
100pF,
300pF/320pF,
470pF!
 
 Of course any one wants I could send the full schematic etc and the photo ( I Can't send as I need some youngster to convert from Camera to PC, hi hi hi hi)
 
 All the best and Do run full Legal limit!
 
 ( Not exactly anti-QRP but pls do experiment)
