Some HomeBrew

A direct conversion receiver. I have sucessfully made it for 3.5MHz, 7MHz, 10MHz and 14Mhz. I cannot give you any schematic though, since i built it completely by head, not documenting as I worked. Not very smart. It uses a NE612 mixer, with an VFO on the receiving frequency. The receiver is quite sensitive, and due to the balanced output to a LM386 audio amp, it does not suffer very much from intermod.


My MP3 Player as it stands today. It is based on a PIC17C756, 512Kb SRAM, a 3,2 Gb hard disk, 256*64 pixel Graphic LCD, MAS3507D decoder Chip, CS4334 D/A, a PIC16F877 to control a numeric keypad, and an old computer case. It works big time, and was my portable monster music box, back in 1998 when portable HD based mp3 players didn't exist.

This is a Memorykeyer and audio break-out box. I can with the knobs on the front select to key radio 1-4, select 2 of 10 different audio-sources to come out on the two built in speakers, or headphones. This way I can run all my radios more or less simultaneously The LCD has backlight of course. The CWThing is built up around a PIC16F877, a IRF530 Switching FET, a load of knobs and connectors, a couple of speakers, a standard ASCII LCD and a 64KBit EEPROM.
On the backside you can see all the connectors. From the left, one line out connector, 5 stereo in connectors, below there are 5 mono in connectors. Then there is the key in connector and four key out connectors. And last but not least the RS232 computer-port, which I use to add/remove/edit the stored messages and a bunch of other things...


Several scrapped projects lying around for a rainy day. There is a flash burner, another receiver project, a morse keyer, a "computer game", a internet ready eeprom burner and temperature sensor(!) with ethernet connection, amongst other things. I mostly use Microchip PIC in my projects.


This is a picture of a magnetometer i hopefully some day will get online. It's quite old, and not exactly in mint condition. The only thing that works as of today, is the X-axis. I have no schematic, and no info on how it works. Hopefully I'll figure it out some day. If anybody has any info, please send me an email. I think it might be a Flinders type.
