SDR CUBE PLUS HF/VHF/UHF SDR Transceiver
Nowadays the SDR transceivers have become more popular. However, they have been depending on PC to be used. For years I wanted to use a SDR transceiver, which can be used without a PC so I happend on SDR Cube project. The original project can be found at www.sdr-cube.com. The SDR Cube was a single band low power transceiver based on soft-rock transceiver kit and dsPic33FJ256A‚ microcontroller. HA9MCQ ,Pista OM improved this radio with a faster dsp (dsPic33EP512) and he done some software and hardware modifications as well. Please find more info here: http://www.qsl.net/ha9mcq/sdr.html. I would like to use this great radio more amateur bands this reason I have done hardware modification too. The ELECRAFT KX3 shematic gave me some new ideas how to improve my SDR radio design. First I replaced the old 74HC74 to a new 74LVC74 faster type (Fin max. 300MHz). This modify enable to work up to 52MHz. Be careful the 74LVC74 Vcc max is 3,6V !! .
