What circuit clips a tone into a square wave just so it could be run through a low pass filter? I thought we were going to start with a square wave. Nothing shapes the square wave. You just run it through a low pass filter just above the fundimental or 1st harmonic if you want to call it that.. The circuit I am thinking about is from an old RTTY audio tone generator I built and was designed by Irv Hoff years ago, around 1970 or so. He used a unijunction to generate a tone of 2125 or 2295 Hz (rtty tones) then fed it into a 2 transistor multivibrator to generate good square waves. Then into a low pass filter made of two coils and I think 2 or 3 capacitors. This filtered out all the odd harmonics ( as there are no even harmonics in the square wave) and just leaves the fundimental frequency as a pure sine wave. That way you could have a VFO going from 5 to 6 MHz and set the filter for about 8 MHz and anything above that would be filtered out. No harmonics or anything but a pure sine wave. As I said, not sure if this would work at RF or not, just something to think about. --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!
