Why, Web? The DC receiver had a lot of short -comings, particularly with the 
needed frequency stability for modern QRSS use. A narrow IF filter (or audio 
in the case of the DC receiver) with sharp skirts is also a must. Save your 
pennies and buy an R-75 off Ebay.

The design of the transmitter is about 1000 times less critical compared to 
a good LF receiver and is simple (and fun) to construct. Then there's the 
antenna.... well, take it from me, there's one type that is 100 times as 
easy to construct and maintain as the other popular type :)
