BITX20 - 5. The VFO build...

Yes indeed the VFO part is done. Especially the small coil with 50 wdg was a blast to make...
Even though i have done a lot of building and fixing stuff, i never wound a coil before. Well there is a first time for everything.

Ok and this is how the VFO part looks when its done.


Next thing is to do some testing again, but i will wait with that till i have some more time to spare... hopefully upcoming weekend. And when i start to test all i just hope everything will be ok so i can proceed to the next part.

Untill the next post !

    Alex,

    Question the kit I bought off of eBay was partial built. It has one of the FM IF transformer for L4 instead of the toriod. I am thinking the IF transformer is not correct, especially since the VFO freq is twice the 4 mHZ it should. Do you remember why you used the toriod and not the IF transformer? Did you get 3 or 4 transformers?

    Thanks
