#6: My first home-made radio receiver
For a long time I have wanted to get into scratch building amateur radio transceivers. Now I have begun the journey by combing some off the shelf modules to make my own radio receiver.
* Oscillator: QRP Labs VFO/SigGen kit.
* Mixer: Mini-Circuits ZAD-2H
* Audio Amplifier: Behringer U-Phoria UMC204HD
* Antenna: 40m EFHW in the attic

I tested the MINIPA70 kit with a 13.2 V power supply, 0.2 W of input signal and 13.5 W of output signal. The temperature rises continuously to about 70 °C when I stopped. The current draw reached about 4.3 A. The increasing current at a fixed gate bias is a sign of thermal runaway. The increased temperature lowers the gate threshold voltage, thus increasing the current flow through the drain, w...

Excited to hear the signal coming from SAQ Grimeton, I recorded a short video of what it was like.

Tomorrow is the 100th anniversary of the SAQ Grimeton transmitter. I give an overview of my setup where I can listen to the received signal, record it, and also decode it on the Morserino.

A quick intro to the Grimeton transmitter, and then a demo of the working receiver kit. A sound file is played on the laptop to emit a radio signal by the magnetic field from the laptop speaker. The kit can be bought from the Grimeton museum gift shop. I don't think it's sold online. The kit uses parts that are fairly easy to obtain, so it's possible to source the parts yourself and build it on...

I'm building a SAQ Grimeton VLF receiver kit. In this video I show how I found the resonance frequency of its loop antenna. The kit is avilable at the Grimeton museum gift shop.

      @@marlomontanaro3233 You can find it at the museum gift shop. I don't think you can buy it online. It's made of pretty common parts, so if you source them yourself, you could maybe build it yourself on a prototype board using the assembly manual: execubic.se/execubic-wp/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/SAQ-receiver-kit-manual-ver-3.pdf
