Thanks for the endorsement Gregg! I think this unit will be a desk top unit
though.
Right now, I have the synthesizer and the loop amplifier/tuning circuit
captured into Protel DXP. I still need to do the Rx section and the Sync
Detector. A couple days more work.............then the fun stuff begins.

Behold, Pete KE9OA signalled from keyed 4-1000A filament:

Thanks for the endorsement Gregg!

Anytime :-)

I'm pro'lly one of the more excited ones here about your project :-D

Do you get much flak from the bean counters about trimming costs in the
design? This seems to be one of the major reasons that some great
receivers don't make it to market.

No, they are leaving the design details up to me. The owner of the company
is also a MW Dxer like myself.

This is all very exciting Pete.
Wonder if the mechanical on/off switch made it to the final design?
Also, are you willing to hazard a guess (realizing of course that
other projects could change it) as to an approx. availability date?

really looking fwd to it!

Can anyone give me opionions as to which one is the best true portable
PLL synthesized DIGITAL radio receiver for listening to MW(AM)?

Please consider the size no bigger than the ATS909 (No S350)

In order of importance please consider these:
1.-Sensitivity
2.-Selectivity
3.-Must have a tuning knob
4.-Sound (must have internal speaker)
5.-Memories

I think the Super Radios are good choice. Most dedicated SW rigs have
attenuation that is present across the AM broadcast band which
substantially lowers the sensitivity.

Since when did they add PLL to a Super Radio?

Dah! I should have read it better. I was just thinking of a good MW
receiver. Sorry CW!
