Re: Codec & ADC's
Hi Bob and all By way of introduction, I'm a local friend of Bob's, WA7EXH since 1965, and a reader of this group. Bob, since I last talked to you about this, it's occurred to me that most of my

Re: New SI5340-based RF Board in development
Hi Phil- I don't know if there is a performance difference between QSE2DC and the V12 circuit.? There is insufficient data available for comparison. Yes, carrier nulling is a software task which has

Re: New SI5340-based RF Board in development
Hi Greg Is there any difference in performance of QSE2DC and the V12 circuit other than the nulling capacity? Nulling is a software task? I notice your use of the differential "op amps" for the

Re: New SI5340-based RF Board in development
Hi John Looking forward to your performance results... I haven't yet built an RF board, been stuck on toroids and other things, so would consider your RF board. Regards Phil VK2KKZ

Re: Morse Code Tutor pcb...
PCBWay was still offering the Global Express a couple weeks ago when I placed an order for something else. JLCPCB had just stopped it that day. They told me it was because their Global Express carrier

*** That's not a big deal. The big deal is that their "Global Standard Line" $1.50 shipping went away, replaced by $22 DHL shipping. - Jerry, KF6VB

I checked the JLCPCB price a month or so ago. $4 for 5 boards up from $2. Not a big deal. -- John P. WA2FZW

Re: Morse Code Tutor pcb...
I just asked my search engine to list US-based PCB manufacturers. The list contains 484 names. However, none comes close to the prices offered in China (e.g., PCBWay, SeeedStudio Fusion, etc). They

Re: New SI5340-based RF Board in development
Interesting points!? What I have observed with the 3253 is that degradation is noticeable at 10M.? Still good enough though.? It looks worse at 6M What I am referring to is the 3253 in the role as

Re: Morse Code Tutor pcb...
I didn't build the Morse Code Tutor, but I did build the CW Messenger from chapter 10.? I built it on a protofboard. I'm sure the Morse Code Tutor build would be similar.

Thanks to everyone for the fast feedback. To answer questions in order: 1) Yes, I plan to release hardware and software files to this site as others have done. If there is demand, perhaps Bill can add

Re: Codec & ADC's
Three fresh AA alkaline batteries in series will produce at least 4.8 volts, plenty for your test.? Three freshly charged NiMH batteries probably won't. 73, John, AA0VE

Re: Codec & ADC's
It would be interesting to do *a battery experiment* , but it is tricky to do.?? The voltage, per spec, should be 4.5 to 5.5 V.? Three AA's, when new, should do that, but barely.?? A question

Re: Codec & ADC's
The short answer is that the 8-bits, or at least part of them are useful.? I'm attaching a plot of the output of the PCM1808 while receiving "no signal" to help explain what is happening. The magenta

Re: Morse Code Tutor pcb...
Thanks Jack, Doug and Terrance! Assuming I decide to pursue having a PCB made, what are the current challenges (if any) using the available board manufacturers? Are they still mostly in Asia, and how

Re: New SI5340-based RF Board in development
Just had a look at what the Si5340 is. It will have a place in high performance radios, but it's not going to replace the Si5351 in all applications. It's a much more expensive part; the cheapest

Re: New SI5340-based RF Board in development
If the Si5340 has a mode with 180 degree outputs, then a very trivial change to the flip-flop circuits will allow divide-by-2. That gets you to 6M with ease.? Also note that John is using the LVC
