Demonstrates the construction of a **homebrew spectrum analyzer** designed by Wes Hayward, W7ZOI, and Terry White, K7TAU, enabling radio amateurs to build a capable test instrument without significant expense. The resource details a _double-conversion superheterodyne_ circuit, employing intermediate frequencies of 110 MHz and 10 MHz, and covers essential blocks such as the time base, logarithmic amplifier, resolution filters, and local oscillators. It highlights the use of hybrid and monolithic ICs, including mixers, amplifiers, and VCOs, to simplify construction while maintaining performance. The design supports useful measurements in the 50 kHz to 70 MHz range, with methods outlined for extending capabilities into VHF and UHF. The authors emphasize that this analyzer, while simple to build, is intended for serious measurements, requiring careful control of signal levels to avoid spurious responses. It uses an oscilloscope for display, with specific instructions for calibration and adjustment of various stages, including the log amplifier and IF gain. The guide provides detailed schematics and component lists for each section, such as the 110 MHz triple-tuned band-pass filter, which achieved **90 dB** image rejection, a significant improvement over double-tuned circuits. Practical advice on alignment and troubleshooting is included, drawing on the authors' extensive experience in RF circuit design.

Operating on the 2200m band (135.7-137.8 kHz) often presents challenges for amateur radio transceivers, which typically exhibit poor receiver performance at these very low frequencies. This project addresses the issue by providing a design for a dedicated 137 kHz antenna preamplifier, specifically tailored to improve signal reception for radios such as the _Yaesu FT-817_. The preamplifier circuit utilizes a low-noise FET input stage, crucial for minimizing self-generated noise and maximizing the signal-to-noise ratio from weak LF signals. The design includes a detailed schematic, component values, and construction notes, enabling homebrewers to build a functional unit. The goal is to achieve significant gain, making the faint signals on 2200m more discernible and improving overall band usability. Key design considerations include impedance matching to typical antenna systems and ensuring stable operation across the narrow LF segment. The circuit aims for a **low noise figure** and sufficient amplification to overcome the inherent limitations of general-purpose HF transceivers when operating below **200 kHz**.

Constructing a high-power 70cm solid-state amplifier presents unique challenges, particularly when aiming for 500 watts output using modern LDMOS devices. This resource details the author's experience building a 70cm amplifier based on a _Freescale MRFE6VP5600H_ transistor, initially from an RFHAM kit. It meticulously outlines the necessary modifications to achieve advertised performance, including optimizing input and output matching, correcting bias circuitry, and ensuring proper output balun connections for stability. The author shares specific adjustments, such as trimming the prototyping board for better transistor fit, drilling additional mounting holes for improved heat sinking, and replacing original matching capacitors with a single _20pf MIN02 metal mica_ for superior output. A critical fix involved jumpering gate decoupling pads to balance the push-pull transistor halves, which increased output to 580W and improved IMD. The resource also highlights a crucial correction to the output balun connection, initially reversed in the _Dubus_ article schematic, which resolved intermittent stability issues. Test results are provided, showing input power, output power, and drain current at 50V, demonstrating the amplifier's performance after modifications. This practical account offers valuable insights for hams undertaking similar high-power UHF amplifier projects, especially those working with LDMOS devices and kit-based constructions.
