Hi
Norcal has a cheap QRP kit they call the 38 special. The claim is you
can build one for under $25. The interesting thing is that it almost
tunes to 10.133 as designed. From a quick look at the schematics it
should be easy to change the crystal to get it to tune to any point in
the 10.130 to 10.140 sub band. I doubt we will make a lot of contacts
with a couple of hundred mw but it sure would be a nice cheap dedicated
receiver. Put a series resonant crystal in front of it and I'll bet
it's got darn good performance.
Enjoy!
