N6QW's Konstruction Korner

 

Sample construction project .

 

Having recently authored a few articles for QRP Quarterly, I found myself including basic data and information that was repeated in the articles and this not only took up valuable print space but it also ended up being a distraction to me and for sure to those reading the articles.

So the purpose of this page is to gather much of the repetitive information at one location. It will also serve as a collection point for tutorials that exist on this site and for any future such tutorials.

I will endeavor to keep things simple and use categories such as home built test equipment as well as those dedicated to specific construction techniques. It will also attempt to collect general interest information such as how to stuff a "Junque Box".This is just a start and as the list grows this page will be updated.

Test Equipment

1) Universal Test Oscillator & RF Probe Schematic

2) RF Probe Photograph

Construction Techniques

1) How to build shielded Copper Boxes

2) How to make circuit boards and installing Dual Gate MOSFET's

3) The use of "Breadboards"

4) A Logical Process~ The art of making things work.

5) Using Voltage Variable Capacitors to replace metal variable capacitors

 

General Interest

1) How to stuff a Junque Box

2) Modifying the K5BCQ Frequency generator for use with an Optical Encoder.
