Assembled a 40m QRP transmitter…
Well, I was kind of bored, so I decided to tack together a little CW transmitter. I had picked up a little 40m kit from Ramsey Electronics. It’s a really simple kit: it took me about two hours to solder the entire thing together, I fired it up, and it works! I only had two problems: one was a molded inductor which didn’t seem to match what was described in the instructions, but it was the only inductor I had left when I had put all the rest of them in, so I wired it in, and it seems to work, and the other was my fault: I misplaced a bunch of 0.01 microfarad caps, and thought they were missing until i found them under my work mat. It’s actually a pretty nice kit, including a case and all the knobs and panels. It looks pretty spiffy next to my TenTec receiver that I built last year. Now, all I need is a key, and I need an adapter to wire it to my antenna, and… well.. I better get practicing on my morse. Pictures and video to come.
I suspect the world would be better if that percentage were even greater.
Apparently 15% of all web traffic is cat related. There's no reason for Brainwagon be any different.
Thanks Mal! I'm trying to reclaim the time that I was using doom scrolling and writing pointless political diatribes on…
Brainwagons back! I can't help you with a job, not least because I'm on the other side of our little…
Congrats, glad to hear all is well.
