Experimental CW QRP Transceiver

 

 

Receiver. DA1 is mixer. Quartz filter is a "3- quartz filter." I am not to do selection of quartz for using it in the filter (of course, if you have possibility to do the selection- do it). All forms for coils are from old ex- USSR VHF FM Transceiver "Len."

DA2 is used as a CW detector and oscillator on 10700 kHz.. The frequency of generation is lowered up to required with the help of RFC and L switched in serial. Audio amplifier, which is shown on Figure 3, is implemented with a low noise transistor and LM386N.

Figure 5 Electronic Switch

Transmitter: L5 (3 turn)/L6 (10 turn) are coiled on a ferrite ring, international analog FT- 37-63, by 0.3 mm wire (28 AWG). Each coil is sitting on its half of the ring. L3 5 turns wire in 0.5 mm or 24 AWG) is coiled on a form in diameter of 7 mm.

VFO: Figure 4 shows the VFO. This one is borrowed by me from "DC Receiver for the 20 meters" by B. Stepanov, (RU3AX). However I added a frequencies shift (VT2). This one needed for SSB/CW QSO. VFO coil is wound on a ceramic form in diameter of 10 mm and contained 45 turns. All capacitors are high quality ones.

Electronic switch: Figure 5 shows the Switch. Borrowed from Ukraine radio magazine "Radio- Hobby" # 1, 2000.

PSB: I did not design a PSB for the transceiver. I did it by "ugly" montage. Each block is mounted on the own board. Fully assembled and tuned boards are soldered at corners to transceiver case.

Adjustment and Tuning: Nothing special at tuning the unit. Do adjustment from Audio Amplifier, then Receiver and Transmitter.
