Isn't that the one that uses the Mini-Circuits VCO? I believe that there was
an article about that unit a couple of years ago. Nice unit.

Pete! Man, are your technically oriented writings a sight for sore
eyes! :-)

I'd like to ask a question, and though it's a bit of a threadjack...

Are you familiar with the OptoElectronics Scout series of frequency
counters? They are notorious for blowing their first amplifier. The
RF circuitry is all SMD, so I don't have any way of identifying the
part to replace it (hopefully with a more durable replacement).

Ever dealt with them? They aren't exactly lab grade... ;-)


ObOnTopic: Git that radio on the market, sir! I wanna buy one o'
them!
