A selection of circuits and ideas for your perusal. Some are original, and others plagurized from elsewhere. In any event the use of them is at your own risk. No responsibility is offered or accepted from your use of them.

 

 One exception in this list is this link to the superb vfo synthesiser kit by PA0KLT. It embodies the use of the Si570 XO chip, and depending upon which version is chosen has a range from 3.5 Mhz to 810Mhz (945Mhz Max). Click anywhere in this text to go to the website. If you are looking to build an exceptional vfo for a transceiver, or signal source, then I personally think this is well worth looking into. Superb support from Jan Verduyn G0BBL.
