[Tony van Roon's circuit] 302 MHz Prescaler - A preamp that drives the CMOS counter input and a divide by 10 prescaler to extend the range of A Little More Serious Frequency Meter. The MCT10280 prescaler can be set to divide by 80, 40, 20, or 10, as a function of which pins are tied to the power supply. I set this one to divide by 10 since it is adequate for my needs, and the mental calculation of multiplying the meter reading by 10 is not taxing. One problem with the MCT10280 is that if it doesn't have an adequate input, the output is very noisy, which shows up as counts in the couple MHz range on the frequency meter. This noise shows up if the signal amplitude the signal frequency is too low. For this reason, I only intend to use the prescaler with inputs between 10 MHz and 300 MHz.
303MHz TRANSMITTER with 32kHz Crystal - We have covered 27MHz (and 49MHz) links on P1 and P2 of this article and shown how to produce a simple circuit (or buy a toy for less than $10.00) and get 4 or 5 channels.

By tuning the 30m receiver to Russia's RWM time signal on exactly 9996kHz I was able to calibrate my frequency counter, which I could then use to measure the output of the QRSS beacon and adjust the reading for a very high precision. Later, I modified my 1-valve ECL82 CW transmitter for 30m operation and enjoyed several QSO's on 30m CW.

3V FM Transmitter for 88MHz to 108MHz - The important part of the circuit is formed of the Colpitts type oscillator. C3,C4,C5,C6,CD1-CD2 and L1 determines the frequency. BF982 and dual gate MOSFET are active parts in oscillator. When the input impedance of the MOSFET gate inputs are high, LC tank is not affected. However transistors force the LC tank and cause phase shift. Two driver stages are added to isolate the antenna from oscillator. First stage (BF199) amplifies the low signal of the oscillator and works as a constant load. The second stage (BFR90) amplifies the signal going through the antenna some more. A short copper wire can be used as an antenna here. Attaching a large antenna to this circuit is unnecessary because the output power is low. 3W FM Transmitter - This is the schematic for an FM transmitter with 3 to 3.5 W output power that can be used between 90 and 110 MHz. Although the stability isn't so bad, a PLL can be used on this circuit. This is a circuit that I've build a few years ago for a friend, who used it in combination with the BLY88 amplifier to obtain 20 W output power. From the notes that I made at the original schematic, it worked fine with a SWR of 1 : 1.05 (quite normal at my place with my antenna).

We have provided a number of circuits so you can work out the best type for your application and these circuits will also help you understand which components are critical.
2N2222 40 Meter CW/DSB Transceiver - In spring of 1998, NorCal sponsored a contest to design and build a project using no ICs and 22 or fewer 2N2222s as the active semiconductor devices. I thought this was a really intriguing idea, so I set about to design my version. 2W RF Amplifier For 24/23 CM - This page describes TX ATV Transmitter for 23 cm with output adjustable from 100 to 250mW.
3 Channel IR Remote Control - This project is a 3-channel IR remote control with 3 output relay and easy to build. Features: CPU PIC12F629 at 4MHz crystal for Tx/Rx, 3 channel output relay, The Tx use sleep mode for saving battery power, Use Phillips RC5 protocol, distance more than 7 m, Easy circuit to build and assembly and small amount of components. Uses RC5 protocol which is probably the most used by hobbyists, probably because the wide availability of cheap remote controls and easy to understand. 3 Channel RF Remote Control - This is a 3 channel RF remote control project.The transmitter powered by 3V battery(coin size) range about 10 m. This remote control I use PIC12F509 from Microchip which is a 8-pin single-chip microcontroller designed for low pin count applications with 1 K words flash memory and 41Byte SRAM and some special features such Power-saving Sleep mode,Wake-up from Sleep on pin change.
30 Meter QRP Transmitter for Morse Code - This transmitters' intended purpose is for morse-code only in 30 meter band (Tony van Roon's 10Mhz). It is a low-power QRP type and needs to be connected to your existing tranceiver. harmonic rejections on prototype were measured at 40dB on 20Mhz and 50dB on 30Mhz.... [Tony van Roon's circuit] 302 MHz Prescaler - A preamp that drives the CMOS counter input and a divide by 10 prescaler to extend the range of A Little More Serious Frequency Meter. The MCT10280 prescaler can be set to divide by 80, 40, 20, or 10, as a function of which pins are tied to the power supply. I set this one to divide by 10 since it is adequate for my needs, and the mental calculation of multiplying the meter reading by 10 is not taxing. One problem with the MCT10280 is that if it doesn't have an adequate input, the output is very noisy, which shows up as counts in the couple MHz range on the frequency meter. This noise shows up if the signal amplitude the signal frequency is too low. For this reason, I only intend to use the prescaler with inputs between 10 MHz and 300 MHz.
303MHz TRANSMITTER with 32kHz Crystal - We have covered 27MHz (and 49MHz) links on P1 and P2 of this article and shown how to produce a simple circuit (or buy a toy for less than $10.00) and get 4 or 5 channels.
We also showed how to produce on/off from a single channel and how to detect 27MHz with a Field Strength Meter.30m direct Conversion receiver - This simple receiver was originally intended to check the transmission of my 30m QRSS beacon. By tuning the 30m receiver to Russia's RWM time signal on exactly 9996kHz I was able to calibrate my frequency counter, which I could then use to measure the output of the QRSS beacon and adjust the reading for a very high precision. Later, I modified my 1-valve ECL82 CW transmitter for 30m operation and enjoyed several QSO's on 30m CW.
30W VHF FM Amplifier for 88-108 MHz with BLF245 MOSFET - The achievement of this 30-watt amplifier has been designed to take place on a heat sink microprocessor PC equipped with its fans, the advantage of this method of cooling has been selected for the fact that 3m 100 MHz small bug
3V FM Transmitter for 88MHz to 108MHz - The important part of the circuit is formed of the Colpitts type oscillator. C3,C4,C5,C6,CD1-CD2 and L1 determines the frequency. BF982 and dual gate MOSFET are active parts in oscillator. When the input impedance of the MOSFET gate inputs are high, LC tank is not affected. However transistors force the LC tank and cause phase shift. Two driver stages are added to isolate the antenna from oscillator. First stage (BF199) amplifies the low signal of the oscillator and works as a constant load. The second stage (BFR90) amplifies the signal going through the antenna some more. A short copper wire can be used as an antenna here. Attaching a large antenna to this circuit is unnecessary because the output power is low. 3W FM Transmitter - This is the schematic for an FM transmitter with 3 to 3.5 W output power that can be used between 90 and 110 MHz. Although the stability isn't so bad, a PLL can be used on this circuit. This is a circuit that I've build a few years ago for a friend, who used it in combination with the BLY88 amplifier to obtain 20 W output power. From the notes that I made at the original schematic, it worked fine with a SWR of 1 : 1.05 (quite normal at my place with my antenna).

5 Channel RF AVR Remote Control - How many times you needed some remote control to handle some electric device ? many times. There are lot of remote controls like infrared, RF, SMS (like my other circuit) and more. The basic small-range remote controls are 2, Infrared and RF (Radio Frequency). One of the weaks of Infrared is that the signal can not pass the walls. So, if you want to control your garage door, the only way is to use some RF remote control. The circuit (transmitter and receiver) use few components and ordinary (I love few component circuits) . Its easy to build it because you don't have to tune-up any coil or variable capacitor.

BA1404 HI-FI Stereo FM Transmitter - The above FM transmitter design is a result of many hours of testing and tweaking. The goal was simple; to test many existing BA1404 transmitter designs, compare their performance, identify weaknesses and come up with a new BA1404 transmitter design that improves sound quality, has very good frequency stability, maximizes transmitter's range, and is fairly simple for everyone to build. We are happy to announce that this goal and expectations have been met and even exceeded. BandPass Filter - This band pass filter is in fact a combined high- and lowpass filter. The first stages are a high pass (f>70MHz) and the last stages a low pass (f<180MHz). The lost of this filter is several watts when driven with 20[Watts], but the output signal is (when adjusted with a spectrum analyser) very clean.
