Smooth tone clickless cw sidetone generator
Just wondering if anyone has built this
http://www.solorb.com/elect/sidetone/index.html. I'm looking for anyone who has made a pcb out of it. Or if anyone would be willing to help me go through the schematic a bit. I'm relatively new to reading schematics and I'm sure this is not the one to start with but it looks like a good project to help learn Morse code. If you are willing please contact me at atkinss at shaw dot ca. Stephen |
Good lord, what a Goldburg way of doing things.
Use one transistor in a phase-shift oscillator configuration and chose your components for the same waveform ;-) -- Gregg "t3h g33k" http://geek.scorpiorising.ca *Ratings are for transistors, tubes have guidelines* |

He has the amplitutude ramping up and down at the beginning and end of the tone. The same thing could be done digitally by a fast microcontroller. I think it would be quite easy with a software DDS. 73, Leon |

Even the one transisitor oscillators are good enough for learning the code. |

It is a popular 'very simple project' candidates for the UK Intermediate Licence can choose to do . At the moment candidates for this AR licence have to construct something simple in order to be assessed for basic construction/soldering skills. Frank GM0CSZ / KN6WH |

Sure will, I've done it....by accident ;-) Had a slow-starting conventional phase-shift oscillator once and decided to "fix it".....ended up using the "flaw". Changed the oscillator and adjusted the Re so you get a nice shaped rise on the leading edge, cap from keyside to ground gives you the lead-out and a little 1N4148 in the base-bias keeps her stable across room temprature range from 15 to 25C. IIRC, the xsistor I used was a 2N5088, replacing the existing 2N2222 for more gain control. -- Gregg "t3h g33k" http://geek.scorpiorising.ca *Ratings are for transistors, tubes have guidelines* |

Any method of locally generating the Morse characters are OK for learning the Morse code. It is a popular 'very simple project' candidates for the UK Intermediate Licence can choose to do . At the moment candidates for this AR licence have to construct something simple in order to be assessed for basic construction/soldering skills. According to the ITU-R recommendations, including the third harmonic (for non-fading circuits) or even the 5th harmonic (for non-fading circuits) is enough. For 12 WPM, this would translate to 30 or 50 Hz bandwidth. Why should any CW enthusiasts be encouraged to use any emissions broader than this ? Paul OH3LWR |
