!60 meter tranceiver
« on: April 07, 2013, 04:57:05 PM »

     I decided I don't want to be a "appliance operator". I would like to build a 160 meter transceiver(AM,SSB,CW).If anyone has any build plans, please email them to me. I would also like to build a 40 meter transceiver(SSB,CW). Also, if anyone has build plans , please email them to me. I will be testing for my General Class License at the Dayton Hamfest, so I got to get busy. 73'S

Unfortunately, the SL6700 has not been made for 17 years. The SL6270 VOGAD has been copied by another company - see the RSGB RADCOM magazine for April 2013.

These were manufactured originally by Plessey Semiconductors in Swindon. The SL6700 was derived from a 1970's design by Electronique Marcel Dassault for a pager type application for the French government.

I was the Applications Engineer for those parts for many years.....

The transceiver may be miniature, but the antenna isn't!

I used to get a kick out of Griefkit builders who thought THAT took them out of the realm of "appliance operator".   Some of the most educated and well versed experts on propagation and antenna physics I know use factory built gear.
