10 km Long Range Transmitter Circuit 2 meter band

Image
The post explains a 10 km long range transmitter circuit using ordinary components .PCB fabrication also explained. With the increased activity on 2 metres, some who may have contemplated working this band, have possibly been deterred by the cost of a " black box " and the uncertainty of modifying commercial equipment. With this situation in mind, the Author has , designed a simple , easily-built 2m f.m. transmitter, that can be assembled by anyone who can use a soldering iron and small tools whilst possessing a reasonable amount of patience. The completed unit will perform well, being as versatile as the constructor ultimately wishes to make it. An r.f. output of around 1 watts can be expected if the unit is constructed as described but power far in excess of this may be, achieved if the design is regarded as a working basis and the p.a. stage is developed. Construction Procedures for the proposed long range transmitter circuit A simple printed circuit technique is employed...

Simple Radio Band Position Display Circuit Diagram

Image
This is a project of Simple Radio Band Position Display Circuit Diagram. This circuit is an add-on unit for radio receivers that lack band-position display. The circuit presented here can show up to nine bands. It also incorporates a novel feature to make the display dance (blink) with the audio level from the receiver. The power-supply for the circuit can also be derived from the radio-set. The conversion of selected channel to BCD format is achieved using diodes D1 through D15 in con-junction with resistors R4 to R7. The voltages developed across these resistors (R4 through R7) serve as logic in-puts to BCD inputs of BCD to 7-segment de-coder IC1 (CD4511). Radio Band Position Display Circuit diagram : Radio Band Position Display Circuit Diagram When all switches are in  ‘off’ state, the volt-age across resistors R4 through R7 is logic zero, but when any of the switches S1 through S9 is slided to  ‘on’ position, the output across these resistors changes to output proper BCD c...
