MONAURAL PREAMPLIFIER
Our audio amplifier kit works very well, but if your input
is a tape head, magnetic phono cartridge or electric mike, the input
level may be too low to do the job. This small preamp can be used in
these applications; plus, we have included a mike that may be used with
the circuit. Power at 6V to 12V (current at 12V is 3mA, only 2mA at
9V). The gain is more than 40 dB.

17-1/2
Watt Mono Amplifier
A high quality audio amp that can
operate on a low voltage, 12 V DC recommended. Uses the Hitachi HA13001
IC and a dozen external components for a compact and powerful monaural
amplifier. Builder must supply his choice of speaker (4 or 8 ohm) and
some heat sink grease to apply between the IC and the heat sink. Includes
PC board and all parts. Build two for stereo.

Variable Power
Supply
The kit comes "complete", which means the transformer
A.C. power cord and a fuse holder are included. Most power supply kits
leave finding such things to the builder. Output via screw terminals,
making this a good bench supply for the kit builder. Voltage may be
varied from a volt up to about 24 volts DC and is well regulated; i.e.
voltage is very stable. Using the LM317T I.C. and including the Philmore
TR241 (24 volt, 1 amp) transformer permits an output range from about
a volt to 21 volts. Higher current is available at the higher voltages
but lower voltage are at lower currents; for example, around 5 volts
output maximum is around 350 mA. Maximum current is available in the
18 to 22 volt range . Ripple (on line noise) is finite, making this
a good kit for those audio and R.F. projects where you do not care to
hear power line noise. Note: We do not recommend a beginner build
this kit unless he has some experienced supervision to help. Any kit
that connects to the A.C. power line is potentially dangerous to the
inexperienced builder.

R.F.
Bug Sniffer
(Hidden Transmitter Locator)
If someone put a BUG (listening
device) in your meeting room, would you know it? Today’s small circuits
make listening devices too easy to conceal to ignore. You may want to
assemble this one for resale to nervous and needy users. A high quality
circuit, should be considered even by the professional. It will detect
any transmitter sending A.M. or F.M. or just C.W. at frequencies anywhere
from ten to 450 MHz; peak sensitivity is in the 80 to 120 MHz portion
where many bugs would be found. The signal strength is indicated on
a bargraph, so the closer to the source you get, the higher the indication.
With some practice, you should be able to find a covert transmitter
to within a few inches of its location. "Professional" bugs, placed
by serious operators can be found easily. Operation on 9 Volt battery
for portability.

PLL VFO EXPERIMENTER'S PACKAGE
(Click on photo for lager view of the board. The Black and white
photo shows the 'bottom" board; the top board is mounted on spacers above that
board and contains the LCD readout and the entry keypad for entering the frequency.
The top board is shown below. )
PLL-VFO Experimenter Package (experienced
builder only) 440Khz to 185mHz.! This new VFO Circuit
is a two part (two board) system for the experimenter. The "Bottom Board" (photo) is the PLL and VFO, complete with an area for the
experimenter to add whatever circuit he desires; such as a transmitter, receiver,
transceiver etc.. The "Top Board" (photo not here yet)
is a controller with a keypad for frequency entry and an LCD digital readout
that displays frequency. The Top Board controller communicates with the MC145170
chip on boards may be stacked with spacers and will mount neatly in a Philmore
No. PB107 plastic case (not included). Not intended to be a complete kit, this
circuit pair is intended to provide a highly flexible platform for the experimenter,
student or Ham radio builder etc.. The circuits provide Rock-Solid frequency
control with a very easy to use human interface (that’s fancy for push-bottom
keypad and readout). Included are circuit ideas, in schematic form, including
a forty-meter transmitter and a radio receiver circuit. The prototyping area
is large; the user can build a simple or multi-stage AM or FM receiver, CW rig,
signal generator etc. The circuit may be used with various oscillator designs
from 440Khz to 185Mhz. The circuit employs
an MC145170 PLL IC which provides drift-free tuning with considerable stability.
Operates on 12 volts DC. You will need up to 100mA to power the kit plus don’t
forget to add enough current capability to handle your own addition to the PC
board.
