David,

Does anyone have an I-Q vfo (google it IYDKWTI), kit or built, for sale?
TIA & 73, Dave, N3HE


Sorry we ran out of them at AmQRP. The sales were brisk while they lasted.
We (George Heron and I) are currently discussing the possibility of another production run.
Let George (AmQRP) know if you are interested.

If anyone is wondering what we are talking about, you can see info and join the discussion in my
YAHOO group - DDS-VFO. I am the moderator and "doorkeeper" just to keep out spam.

Very briefly, it's a 0-30 MHz VFO that I designed. It uses a couple of PIC microcontrollers to run
an AD9854 DDS. This DDS part provides TWO outputs - I (In-phase) and Q (Quadrature - 90 degrees
shifted from the I) which allows many interesting modulation/demodulation possibilities.

I had to Google IYDKWTI and I do know what it is !. ;-)

73,
-Craig, AAØZZ
