Believe it or not, I have never built anything Manhattan style\u2026 So, I decided to give it a go and built a little 40m DC receiver designed by Rev. George Dobbs G3RJV consisting of a NE612 and LM386. I have included a shot of it below. I was very pleased with this building style and think I may adopt it going forward. In particular I like how easy it is to make changes. I just used <\/span>tin snips<\/span> to make the pads. For the 8 pin IC pads, I cut them 2 cm square and used a hacksaw to saw between the IC pins and up the middle to separate the pin pads electrically by removing the copper. Make sense? Very simple to then bend the IC pins 90 degrees and solder them down. Preaching to choir, I know\u2026 But it takes some us a little longer to get on board, eh? <\/span>J<\/span> I was very pleased with the outcome. <\/span><\/p>\n

I like Jeff’s technique for the IC pads. I will have to try that. <\/p>\n

SolderSmoke 108 will feature an interview with George Dobbs in which he talks about the Sudden Build-a-thon.
