On the datasheet for the Murata RO3144E-2 916.5MHz SAW resonator, it states:
>The SAW resonator is bidirectional and may be installed with either orientation.
>The two terminals are interchangeable and unnumbered.
Which brings to doubt whether this is an automatic (put in DC, get out AC) resonator, as does the equivalent RLC model. But pic related suggests that it does do this. So assuming pic related works fine and that the upper diagram's transistor is meant to be powered with the binary signal you want to transmit over CW (what I want to do), what kind of values should I be looking at for the inductor and capacitors? If the LC part has to be in resonance (which it better since otherwise we aren't getting a nice siusoid), that means using stupidly small capacitors and inductors, might as well use a piece of double-sided PCB and cut it to size along with a single wrap of wire around a pencil. Parasitics will be a bitch, that I know. The "antenna" shown in that circuit is an inductor, but I was under the impression that a half-wave dipole oscillated its electric field, not magnetic, and that's the antenna I planned on using.
