sure, but I'd need to at least understand what's low noise and what's not again :-) >> >> -) if there were many others with my same needs, we'd probably find >> better to use a modern DDS (share the pcb making and someone who can >> do the soldering of such packages), instead, so far the low-VHF people >> aren't generally aware that better frontends are possible, you find >> lot of work in the HF receivers and next to nothing in the lower VHF >> where big signals and intermodulations come from broadcasts and not >> from other amateur stations! > > Maybe the DDS board from the DMTD project would fit your needs? maybe, I didn't follow that thread, what DDS chip is used? What's the clock source? In this moment I'd pretty much like it fits my needs, also because of Rick's comment (I would order custom made xtals if it's not going to cost more than the rest of the parts and if I know what to order).
