Exhibit C


Scott's Regenerodyne


Scott sent me images of his endeavours with the Regenerodyne, and let me tell you, i am impressed. Scott has plans to redesign the Regenerodyne using a different detector arrangement and incorporating the Pullen Mixer. The Pullen actually might prove better than my own simple set-up. It is basically two triodes, often in a single envelope such as a 6N7 or 6SN7 (the 6N7 shares the same cathode), one being a cathode follower who's output feeds the cathode of the other triode, which is a mixer injected by the LO at the grid. A non linear mix occures with a sum and difference frequency generated. The first triode effectively shields the antenna from the mixer, something that mine does not. I believe Scott is also using a throttle cap reactance/regeneration control.

This is a front view of his first regenerodyne.

The front panel has more function than my versions, in that he uses front panel band switching and he is using a different vernier. I understand that this rig is actually a prototype for another which he is planning. When he gets that one completed, perhaps we can talk him into sending us images and a schematic for IT as well.

This (obviously) is an interior-anterior view.

Check out that xtal bank for some serious band-switching. I have to get back behind or inside my sets to change the band xtal, Scott is doing it the smart way!

His layout is described as follows: It is a Regenerodyne with 4 tubes and one-half circle dial faces. The tube compliment is: 1) a 6SK7 pentode detector, 2) a 6J7 Preselect-mixer, 3) a 6SN7 audio train, and 4), a 6C5 Local Oscillator. The preselect and LO is the same as in the Regenerodyne construction article on this site.
