Quick video on some initial experiments with the radio configured as a single conversion superhet. The video looks at the two IF amps (cascode J310s) and the selection of the BFO and VFO frequencies. The next step is to add a second IF amp after the crystal filter to improve sensitivity.
I'll post a video on the IF amps once they are finalised.
The crystal filter sounds fine to me. It's not high fidelity, but perfectly adequate for SSB.
