HI-PER-MITE is a HIgh-PERformance SMALL audio filter. It is designed to be
very versatile, have low parts count, be inexpensive, yet provide
outstanding performance. This is a flexible design that can be used as a
stand-alone unit driving headphones, earbuds, or speakers, or it can be
easily integrated into an existing receiver needing additional CW filtering
(see manual for details).Designed by David Cripe NMØS, it features a 200
cycle bandwidth with NO RINGING! It can be used as an external stand-alone
unit with an onboard audio amp for driving a speaker or headphones. It also
can be built into a receiver without using the audio amp, or with it if you
need an audio stage. This is a very useful accessory for direct conversion
or other rigs needing additional selectivity. It removes/reduces signals
and noise outside the 200HZ passband, and also power line hum in Direct
Conversion receivers. Thus providing comfortable listening while using
earbuds, headphones, or a speaker. If you have a direct conversion
receiver, you will love this filter.The HI-PER-MITE is a much improved
version of Dave's HI-PER Audio Filter circuit that was published in the May
1994 issue of 73 magazine. If you wish to learn more about the genesis of
the HI-PER Mite, and learn about important audio filter design parameters,

below.This low cost kit sacrifices nothing in the way of quality. It
features a high quality printed circuit board, low parts count, all through
hole parts, and fast and easy building. It is an excellent kit for first
time builders, and was chosen as the Buildathon kit for OzarkCon
2012. First time builders please note: This kit is not difficult to build,
