Subject: [HBR] Question about HBR BFO Waveform
In-Reply-To: <45E6EED0-417F-4D85-AC3E-68630B99F757@comcast.net>

Message-ID: <CAEz8jcQKd558wo+aUZjn8Kiq1GXEe2fs8u8pieRjrpmebu1g4w@mail.gmail.com>

BFOs that do not have an explicit amplitude control mechanism rely on
nonlinear mechanisms like saturation (e.g. Class C tube operation) to
operate. So the waveforms in most places in such circuits will typically be
harmonic-rich.

If you want to pick off a clean sine wave from such an oscillator, add a
small resistor (or small L, or large C, whatever is convenient) in series
with the crystal and amplify as needed.

BFO harmonics can be a problem in multiband receivers. It may be
easier to avoid generating them than to remove them afterward by
filtering.

Hi.  I'm Jim, AK7R  & have been a ham since 1952.  Back in about 1962 I built one of the HBR tube receivers designed by the late Ted Crosby (W9TC, SK).  I used it for several years & it's been in storage for about 35 years or so.  Would like to find a good home for it.  It's in pretty decent shape & I don't want my heirs (who have no interest in ham radio) to put it in the trash.

Bill, I know how you feel. Who is going to pick up all this NEAT stuff down the road. Some is of museum quality.  I don't know if it's a 13C or not. Jim said he would be sending pictures. I personally have enough radios for the time being.....and wonder what I'm going to do with all my stuff later on. They tell me "you can't take it with you" and I don't see me using it all up anytime soon. I wonder about the guy who shows up at all these swapmeets and buys ALL the good old tube stuff and has BUILDINGS full of old radios (I've seen the pictures) .....he will work on "sometime".  Using is IN....collecting is OUT and having fun with all the stuff is "Numero Uno".  73 Kees K5BCQ

Hi,

I have been moving my "legacy" gear to new homes. Some of it I get a few 
dollars (not gold plated) and some I just give away. If I am not using 
it and not close to using it and it has an inch of dust on it then it is 
a candidate to go away. Once upon a time I was interested in the HBR. I 
still think they are cool. But I have two or three legacy radios here 
that I will play with in events like CX. I am relying much more on 
inexpensive, solid state, and low power gear. When I am gone there will 
be a few documented pieces for the heirs to pass along and the rest goes 
right into the nearest dumpster.

73,

Bill  KU8H

I too, finally sold my 1964-built HBR-11, just recently.  The chap who
bought it always wanted one, but due to his physical limitations, he
couldn't ever build one, so he achieved a dream and I got a smile & a few
bux.  Mine even still had the ORIGINAL Allied Radio box that the coil-forms
and some other parts CAME IN.  I just didn't use the radio enough to justify
hanging onto it, especially when somebody ELSE could enjoy it as much as I
had.

Greetings Kees and the group,?
Jim and I met last week to make the trade, and now i'm the proud owner of an HBR (my first)!? Jim is a great guy and graciously agreed to meet me "somewhere in the middle" between our respective QTH.? Jim said he built this HBR initially as a HBR-16 (with the Eddystone dial) while serving in the Air Force, but then added a Q-multiplier; and told me it's now an HBR-17.?
As Jim mentioned, it's been in storage, and will need a little cleanup, replacement electrolitics and so on; but is still in great shape. I'll be making every effort to restore it to its former self, preserving as much of the original labeling, etc as possible. Jim did a fantastic? job on the construction, so i want to be equally meticulous in the restoration!? I'll try to make photos available to the group if interested.?

Vern, If you send me the pictures (around 100-150KB size) I can upload them for everyone to enjoy on the website and give Jim credit as the original builder. Maybe add more pictures later when you have fully restored it.  I continue to be amazed at how many of these HBRs are still out there. 73 Kees K5BCQ

Greetings Kees and the group, 
Jim and I met last week to make the trade, and now i'm the proud owner of an HBR (my first)!  Jim is a great guy and graciously agreed to meet me "somewhere in the middle" between our respective QTH.  Jim said he built this HBR initially as a HBR-16 (with the Eddystone dial) while serving in the Air Force, but then added a Q-multiplier; and told me it's now an HBR-17. 
As Jim mentioned, it's been in storage, and will need a little cleanup, replacement electrolitics and so on; but is still in great shape. I'll be making every effort to restore it to its former self, preserving as much of the original labeling, etc as possible. Jim did a fantastic  job on the construction, so i want to be equally meticulous in the restoration!  I'll try to make photos available to the group if interested. 
73's for now...Vern - N7GTB Kennewick, WA
