    I admire your technical skill and ability to put together things from discarded objects.
    I have been inspired by many f our projects.

    a lot of useful info, ordered my parts and gonna attempt a few.

    The AD9850 is so much fun and you can use it for a lot of cool projects: WSPR, RTTY, Antenna Analyzer etc. etc.

    Esse sim, tem todos os esquemas e modelos de programação para set do arduino. Ótimo

    Really useful video! Most just throw "Arduino" at the problem without further elaboration. I've never done anything with one, but am looking to start. Thanks again!

    Hi Peter,
    Thanks for posting this video. Years ago I did a fair bit of PIC programming, but nothing much since. Until I saw your video I knew next to nothing about Arduino - it looks very "plug 'n' play".
    Cheers & 73,

    I think it was ad7c who made an entire schematic and demo code for this. Love this module!

      *Joblessalex* can you find out where I can view his (ad7c?) video and get a schematic?
      I will still need to find videos on programming this Arduino thingy. I never coded a radio or anything since I quit working in electronics about 30 some years ago. Just getting back into it because getting out and about has severely diminished. Radio will be my form of participating with the outside world soon.

    you should review the ubitx code and what it has done

    Hello Peter! There is a way to make an I Q VFO using two AD9850 for DC phasing receiver? I think this would be a nice solution to make a general coverage rx right?

    • @aleweber

      Alejandro Weber Sorry... great video as always!

    • @vk3ye
      @vk3ye  8 років тому

      +Alejandro Weber Quite possibly. Never done it though.

    I am confused. Is the RF output on this VFO to be used in the place of a crystal oscillator in a radio or alike? I am not really sure why or how a DDS VFO would be used in a RF project.

    • @vk3ye

      You'd use a DDS if you want frequency agility. It's more stable than a free-running VFO which uses (now) hard to obtain variable capacitors and reduction drives. Plus you get a digital readout!

    • @smallenginedude71
      @smallenginedude71 8 років тому

      vk3ye That makes sense. Would you simply put it in place of a variable capacitor and crystal?

    • @vk3ye
      @vk3ye  8 років тому

      In place of the whole VFO circuit - not just crystal & v/capacitor.

    • @smallenginedude71
      @smallenginedude71 8 років тому +1

      vk3ye Thanks a bunch peter! When i learn more about arduinos i will give this project a go! And put it in a RF project.

    Too bad the sketches and libraries rarely compile correctly and there are hours and hours and hours of frustration
