Published:2013/3/7 3:14:00 Author:Ecco | Keyword: House Finch, Direct Conversion Tube , Receiver
After building the Little Chickadee 6U8A vacuum tube 80 meter CW transmitter project, your author decided that it would be a good idea to build a companion 80 meter tube CW receiver. A direct-conversion design seemed like a good approach since it is fairly simple and is effective for receiving morse code. Not wanting to reinvent the wheel, the Internet was searched for vacuum tube direct conversion designs. Surprisingly, no other projects were found. The online projects that were found were either solid state designs or regenerative tube circuits.
Nature abhors a vacuum, but not necessarily a vacuum tube so this project was born. Of course, designing something new with vacuum tubes is not an entirely rational pursuit. Rationalizations aside, tube projects are fun, nostalgic and they glow in the dark. This project was a lot more difficult to complete than originally anticipated, but solving the many problems was certainly educational. Those who copy this design should have a much easier time getting the circuit running. It should be farily straightforward to adapt this design to other HF ham bands by changing the resonant sections in the front end filter and oscillator.
The 6U8A audio amp project was already functioning nicely and was perfect for the audio amplifier stage in a communications receiver. The 6U8A seemed like a good choice for the mixer and oscillator circuits. In fact, that's how the 6U8A is usually used. One can think of the 6U8A as a vacuum tube equivalent (sort of) of the popular NE602 IC. The first version of this receiver used just two 6U8A tubes, it worked (barely), but there was a need for additional audio gain and isolation between the antenna and the mixer. The 6C4 preamp tube and the 6BA6 RF amplifier tubes were added to solve these problems.
The receiver is divided into three physical sections, 1: the RF filter and amplifier, 2: the mixer, oscillator and audio filters and 3: the audio amplifier. A few extra grid bias resistors and filament hum cancelation resistors were added so that the individual sections can be disconnected and operated in a stand-alone mode. This also allows the sections to be used as stand-alone modules for other projects. An external power supply provides 6.3VAC for the filaments and 250VDC for the B+ supply, the supply can be shared between this receiver and the companion Little Chickadee transmitter.

General purpose hobby circuit of a simple light fence security beeper is presented here. This circuit can be used as a door alarm, gate alarm, pathway alarm, etc. Any 12 Volt dc power supply can power the whole circuit.Working of this circuit is straight forward. In standby mode photo transistor T1 receives light from the green LED (D1) and T1 conducts to disable the gated low-frequency astable built around IC1(4093).When this light path is interrupted by any object in the path, T1 stops conducting and IC1 is switched by the low level at its input point (pins 12&13). As a result the piezo-buzzer starts beeping at a slow rate determined by the in circuit values of R3, R4 & C1. Red LED (D2) is a visual warning indicator.With the help of suitable reflector and lens assembly, length of the light path can be increased. A minimum of 1 to 2 metres is possible with a high-bright green LED as D1. A laser pointer can also be used as the light source.

This transmitter?is basic but allows transmission of audio to an AM radio. It consists of an RF?oscillator operating in the AM broadcast band, together with a modulator stage,?which mixes the incoming audio and the RF. A signal appears on the output, which?has an AM component that can be picked up on a nearby AM radio receiver.
The transmitter consists of?oscillator stage Q1 and modulator/buffer stage Q2. Q1 is biased via R1, R2, and R3.?L1, C3, and C4 form the tank circuit with feedback network C3-C4 providing feedback?to the emitter of Q1. RF voltage at the junction of C3 and L1 drives buffer/modulator stage Q2. Q2 is biased by base current produced by RF rectification in the?base emitter junction of Q2. C6 is an RF and AF bypass capacitor. C9, C10, and L2?form the tank circuit for the collector of Q2. RF is taken from the junction of C9 and?C10 and fed to a?short-wire?antenna. Audio is fed to modulator Q2 via C8 and isolation?resistor R5 and mixes with the RF signal in the collector circuit of Q2, producing?a signal that has sum and difference frequencies if the RF carrier and AF input ?along with the carrier signal.
An AM signal appears at?the collector of Q2. Audio with an RMS voltage equal to about 0.7 times the collector?voltage of Q2 is needed for full modulation of the output.?Because of the high level of audio needed, the modulation obtained from this circuit?is somewhat limited with conventional audio sources because several volts of?audio into a few hundred ohms is needed. The circuit demonstrates the principle of?an AM transmitter, however, and with a suitable audio drive level, produces a well modulated?AM signal.5 Responses to “Basic low power AM transmitter”

Published:2012/9/16 20:37:00 Author:Ecco | Keyword: Wireless Keylogger
The Wireless Keylogger consists of two main building blocks: the transmitter, and the receiver. The actual keylogging takes place in the transmitter, which is in fact a PS/2 hardware keylogger, with a built-in 2.4 GHz wireless module. Captured keystroke data is transmitted through the radio-link in real-time, rather than getting stored. The receiver on the other hand, is a wireless acquisition unit with a USB interface. All keystroke data received from the transmitter is sent to the host computer via USB. From the software side, this data is available through a virtual COM port, allowing any terminal client to be used for visualizing keystroke data. (View)
