Dale: Wow, small world! Yea I think that is the one I'm working on. I think
you also had a DC-DC converter to bring the voltage to the varicaps up.
Very nice enclosure for the oscillator. I now have it percolating nicely
as a VXO around 23 Mhz (for the 17 meter band). Bill

Dale: Wow, another Barbados RX builder. That was my first successful
superhet project. I now have the one I built (still on 20), and this
morning
I got another one (the one built by someone else on a factory-made
board)going on 17 with a VXO. I have a THIRD partially built Barbados
RX board. If this
keeps up, I'll soon have a BBRX museum.
Hi Bill,
Did I sell you mine years ago? I seem to recall using a temp stabilized
varicap in a shielded enclosure for main tuning. It was done on a factory
board. Or was that a 6M xverter I sold?
