Unidirectional RF wireless transmitting & receiving - Digital in, digital out, with no wires! ! ! Yes, it can be that easy but there are some things you will find out about going wireless that you may not have counted with wired connection. This App Note will guide you through a simple RS232 link and illustrate how easy these devices are to use as long as you know how to handle a couple wireless phenomenon and plan your project to take these into account. __ Contact info @ wzmicro.com
Universal Infrared Receiver - i think you know what's a UiR so iF it isn't so go to TiES BOS page and learn something :-). !

USB 0-500MHz RF Power Meter based on a AD8307 - Measurement of transmitter output RF power has never been easier and more precise. AD8307 USB 0-500MHz RF Power Meter allows to measure the power of transmitters from 1nW to 2W / 50W with 40dB attenuator. Output is displayed in dBm, Watts (nW, uW, mW and W range) as well as input voltage. USB RF Power Meter is based on popular AD8307 watt meter IC and PIC 18F2550 microcontroller. __

Variable Bandwidth CW Filter - As the sunspots return and DX propagation conditions to improve, the age old problem with QRM begins to show up on the amateur bands. Fortunately, help is at hand. The circuit in figure 1 is a variable bandwidth CW filter using two IC 's. The first IC is a 741 op amp used as an active filter and the second IC is a 386 audio amp IC . This circuit connects to the headphone or speaker jack of your HF rig __ Designed by Radio Amateur Society of Norwich

Versatile end-fed wire - A piece of wire of almost any length can be used as an antenna on the HF bands. However, just because an antenna can be made to work is no guarantee that it will perform efficiently. This article will initially concentrate on the half wavelength of wire and its useamateur radio construction projects. __ Designed by Peter Parker VK3YE
Very High Gain Crystal Earphone Amplifier - This simple, one-transistor amplifier provides a voltage gain over 1000 (60 dB) for driving a high impedance ceramic (crystal) earphone. The high gain is achieved by replacing the traditional collector resistor. __ Contact: Charles Wenzel of Wenzel Associates, Inc.
Very Simple Circuit ADSB Receiver using a TV tunder to allow reception of aircraft transponders - With this design you can expect to get several 100 km range with a good antenna. I use a home made J-pole with a single 32 Eurocent BFP420 transistor giving excellent low noise gain for very little money. it can be bought like most of the needed components at Reichelt. Many good quality (Kathrein for example) Satellite L band line amplifiers use this transistor and if you can get at least 12 Volts to the preamp they offer excellent performance despite being laid out for 75 Ohms. i'll document the preamp later. This is what you can get in Luxembourg with a clear view to the South for several kilometers __ Designed by Edward John Cardew

VHF Receiver Converterer - For Q1 and Q2 I used a pair of 3SK45 dual gate FET's. Most VHF N-Channel dual gate MOSFETs should work fine. I have used 3SK88, BF961, and BF981 FET's in this circuit. if you decide to use a GaAsFET for Q1, you will probably need to use a Zener diode to reduce the drain voltage to a safe level. L1 is 5 turns of 1mm copper wire, tapped at 1 turn, coil diameter 7mm, L2 and L3 are 5 turns each. T1 primary is 9 turns on a Toko 10mm former (old iF transformer) T1 secondary is 2 turns. The screening can and outer ferrite cup are not used. __ Designed by EI9GQ homebrew radio

VHF/UHF Prescaler - The recommended Prescaler is ridiculously simple. it consists of just one IC , a TV tuner prescaler, the Philips SAB6456A, which can divide by 64 or by 256. This chip is widely available both new and in the surplus market at much lower prices than conventional divide by 10 prescalers. __
VHF/UHF TV Modulator - Simple oscillator that generates a frequency in the VHF or UHF region. The oscillator is modulated with the video signal and the modulated carrier wave thus generated is fed into the TV set's aerial input via a cable. Then all that remains to do is tune the TV to the correct frequency. __

VLF Upconverter for Shortwave Receiver - The schematic above is a simple up converter which I used in conjunction with a short-wave receiver to quite successfully to monitor solar flare activity a few years ago. You can use a 3.5 or 4 MHz crystal for Y1 to up convert from about 10 KHz to 150 KHz to either 3.510 or 4.010 MHz respectively. A long wire antenna was used here but a VLF loop antenna __ Designed by Radio-Sky Publishing
VLF Whistler Reception - "Natural Radio" is a fancy name for radio noise with natural origins, mainly lightning. At first, you might think that listening to lightning crackles is pretty uninteresting but as it turns out, electromagnetic radiation from lightning can travel great distances and undergo strange modifications along the way __ Contact: Charles Wenzel of Wenzel Associates, Inc.
Voltage to Frequency Converter + 1us LED Pulse Driver - This circuit receives the signal from the above amplifier and launches powerful 1uS infrared light pulses from a low cost LED that are frequency modulated by the audio information.
