Well I have decided to build a TIA (ZIA according to Pete) SSB transceiver. I&#8217;ve decided to homebrew everything including the DBM, crystal filter, and even the Si5351 module. As I wait for more parts to come in, I wanted to show the 2 TIA amps and crystal filter assembly I&#8217;ve built. I&#8217;ve included a screenshot of the pass band response through the amps and the crystal filter. It looks the same in both directions and everything fits into an area of 2 x 2.5 inches. With the space left on the board, I hope to be able to put my SBL-1 clones on as well. I follow up as I get more completed.<\/p>\n<p>73<\/p>\n<p>Dean AC9JQ<\/strong> <\/div>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"> <\/div>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.homebrewradio.us\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Dean2527sTiaSpectrum.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" height=\"298\" src=\"https:\/\/www.homebrewradio.us\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Dean2527sTiaSpectrum.jpg\" width=\"400\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p> Our book: &#8220;SolderSmoke &#8212; Global Adventures in Wireless Electronics&#8221; <a href=\"http:\/\/soldersmoke.com\/book.htm\">http:\/\/soldersmoke.com\/book.htm<\/a> Our coffee mugs, T-Shirts, bumper stickers: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cafepress.com\/SolderSmoke\">http:\/\/www.cafepress.com\/SolderSmoke<\/a> Our Book Store: <a href=\"http:\/\/astore.amazon.com\/contracross-20\">http:\/\/astore.amazon.com\/contracross-20<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi guys, I&#8217;ve been on kind of a building hiatus due to various issues, but after seeing the work being done with the termination insensitive amplifiers I had to start noodling again&#8230;..as Pete would say.
