/diy/ - Do It Yourself

>>1117345
500mW(Max, over-driven, at peak resonance) LM386-N based ham pixie in an Altoids tin for 40m, right now set for 7.110MHz, CW only.

Future plans are to mod the kit, replace the crystal with a synthesizer, add a notch filter to the audio, add an auto-keying circuit for paddles or key input, maybe try to add some other form of modulation to the system.

I wish I had more to show but time is a fleeting resource.

>tfw even without any filtering you make a 1000 mile contact at something like 150mW from a big hilltop.
