This link seems to be broken.
Pete, I remove temporary items from my web site pretty quickly due to space restrictions. I tried to e-mail the chart to you but got the following reply: ----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors ----- (reason: 591 your host [216.86.143.7] is blacklisted by bl.spamcop.net. No mail will be accepted) No more midnight spam for me! Anyway, the chart is back up for a couple more days. By the way, on the perfboard I used to build my dummy antenna I added a 0.1 uF coupling capacitor between the signal generator input and a second output lead with an alligator clip. This provides a 50-ohm DC-isolated signal for IF alignment. I usually align radio IFs by sweeping a signal at the front end, often just blasting through the RF and mixer stages at 455 kHz. But the alligator clip is handy when I want to drive the mixer grid directly. You can drive the grid with the dummy network, but the 50-ohm source impedance of the direct output ensures that the parallel impedance at the grid doesn't affect the sweep flatness. Brian |
