[Lowfer] LowFER "Watering Hole" Sound Card Converter

[Charlie , W5COV]

My friend , Charles Wenzel , in Austin , Texas , has designed and built a 
nice stable converter specifically designed to convert the LowFER watering 
hole , down to be used with any sound card .

He will be testing it this week . I have one under construction , and will 
have it finished hopefully this week , when my counter chips arrive .

So if you don't have a receiver for the watering hole , but do have a 
computer , here is a cheap and easy way to get your feet wet with the fun of 
listening to the watering hole , here is a simple way to use ARGO and join 
the group .

It is a work in progress , but is currently up and running from Charles's 
home in Austin , TX . The URL for it is :

Nothing too big and no difficult to find parts to build it . If you need the 
oscillator module , drop Charles or myself a note and we will gladly send 
you one free of charge .

Charles has some other LF plus various other projects on his hobby web page 
:

Look under the circuits tab on the main page for even more projects as well 
as his works in progress page .

He also has a GREAT simple to build SID receiver , if you want the ability 
to monitor solar flares right on your home computer , that performs as well 
as the government and educational institutions monitors . I consider it a 
MUST for all radio users , both receiving and transmitting . It uses WWVB as 
the reference signal so that is about as good of a station that you are 
going to find in the USA for reliability .
