I am looking for a contruction artical or some other starting point for
a solid state 5 to 5.5 mHz. VFO to use with my PSK-20. Hopefully
somebody can point me to a contruction project, a kit or a source of a
VFO.

Buying a copy of "Experimental Methods in RF Design" (the successor
text to "Solid-State Design for the Radio Amateur") would be a very

amount of very practical information and experience about how to do
this sort of thing well and reliably.

kit which you might be able to adapt for your needs.

Doug Demaw W1FB had another "universal VFO" design in his "QRP
Notebook" (a great book if you can find a copy). You can buy a kit
for it (board, semiconductors, air-variable cap, copy of the
construction article) for $30 from

I've bought stuff from Dan a couple of times and have always been
satisfied with what I've received.
