Default Re: Homebrew SSB Transceiver

Hi Jeremy..... As you ask.... no.. I have put out a few CQ Test calls... but as yet no... tried 80 and 40.... I know RF is getting out as the lamp in my bedroom comes on at number 1 "electronic touch " switch... and I know the mod is ok...but maybe the stations I am hearing are putting a bit more power than me......
I was out at Blackpool today.. so monday morning I will re try... trouble is.. my half 5RV is not suited to 80 m although the KW tuner is peaking ok.
To pass the time.. I re jigged my Watson SWR /Power meter... adding an RF sniffer for the spectrum analyser.... and fixing a 100W dummy load on top.. and an RF switch on the side.... I like things tidy.
