The Electronics Universe

Here is the beginning of my new 6 meter rig. This is semi homebrew. The basic radio came from a MFJ 9406.

The small package made it impossible to upgrade or modify. I added a new chassis. A 6 to 1 ratio vfo mechanism. I have 12 amp power supply that I will be installing. Also a working and tested 6 segment LED readout.

The chassis was originally an old mobile 11 meter amp that I bought at a yard sale for 20 bucks. I stripped it down and saved some of the parts for later projects. The vfo mechanism is from a Pal vfo. I will be adding rf shields to the main board, vfo and display. This should help keep the display clock out of the receiver.

I also will be adding a squelch circuit, mic gain control, and a alc control.
I have to reprint the anolog disk once the radio is completed.

I will post more as this project progresses.

Shack remodeled.
Still some finishing up to do. Trim and so forth.

Mine was great!!!

Hope yours was bro........

Hi crazy. In 2000 I got hit real hard. Took out all my stuff including hand held radios that were setting in chargers. But where I am at now I have never had a problem.

And yes there is a tv antenna up as well along with a multi dipole aray antenna hanging in the trees behind tis pic. It is about 65 feet long.
The one you can see hanging on the pole (looks like a bunch of wires) is about 125 feet long.

You said a mouthfull there bro.
