I have had a good search around but couln't find what i was after, has
anyone come across any information about 6m homebrew or could someone point
me in the right direction web site wise

many thanks




There's just not enough VHF homebrew out there! Particularly since
there's all sorts of wireless semiconductors that cover VHF at their
absolute lower limit (we won't get into why there's no UHF homebrew
given that's where all the wireless chips are).

"QRP Classics" has a little bit of 6 meter stuff, as does "Solid-State
Design for the Radio Amateur", but I haven't seen much any where else.

Try Experimental Methods in RF Design. The ARRL position
it as the de facto 2nd edition of Solid State Design for the
Radio Amateur. I'm inclined to agree...there is tons of
stuff out there (my own library is growing steadily), but
people constantly complain of never being able to find
anything. I'm not sure where the disonnect is...

Reminds me of a conference I went to last year, where a
fellow walked by me with a copy of EMRFD under his arm.
I commented what a neat book it was, and when he turned
around I saw his name badge: "Rick KK7B".

In 2004 the obvious solution is a nice and stable LO
(easy), an I/Q baseband up/down-converter (ditto), and
some DSP code (also easy).
