120_150_MHz_FOR_TRANSISTOR_RADIO

Published:2009/7/15 5:02:00 Author:Jessie

Values shown cover bands for aircraft radio, 2-m amateur radio band, and other services. Circuit is regenerative converter, with incoming signal tuned by La-C2 and mixed in 2N2222 or equivalent transistor connected as oscillator with frequency controlled by L3 and C7. Difference frequency is adjusted to fall in standard broadcast band, for pickup by radio when converter is mounted close to ferrite loop. For local stations, antenna of converter can be 19-in length of wire. L2 and L4 are 100-μH chokes or about 20 in of fine wire wound on 100K resistor. -S.

ADJUSTABLE_SQUARE_WAVES

Published:2009/7/15 4:57:00 Author:Jessie

Q1 and Q2 form flip-flop, with UJT Q3 connected as time delay. When power is applied, one flip-flop transistor conducts and C1 charges through one pot and diode. When C1 reaches firing voltage of UJT, it conducts and resulting output pulse triggers flip-flop, Sequence of events now repeats, with C1 charging through other diode. By proper selection of C1 and pot values, circuit becomes square-wave generator with each pot controlling duration of one half-cycle. With one pot replaced by fixed resistor, circuit becomes pulse generator with other pot controlling pulse-repetition rate. If equal-value fixed resistors replace pots and R1 is changed to pot, circuit becomes symmetrical square-wave generator with pot controlling frequency,-I.
