Here are some outputs as promised; it is definitely the 30MHz LPF in circuit above 15MHz, but I am surprised by the amplitude of the LO even when it is as high as 49MHz.


I will check, check, check!

mark,
note that the audio is 'hissier' than a usual transceiver, this is due to larger bandwidth. you could try a 0.1 across the two ends of the volume control to reduce the bandwidth.

    I'm very pleased with how it sounds; can't wait for the 1st QSO!

    I've just done some experiments this morning with a new
    design/replacement for the 15MHz LPF, which I can't get quite
    right as Farhan designed:

    I'll do the sweep requested later today as I move onto TX testing...

        Way to go Mark!

        I knew you'd finish before I even turned on the iron!!

        Good audio on the video. Thanks for posting.
