Some experiments with double balanced mixers and GNURadio

Image
Hi all, This post is all about frequency mixing , specifically double balanced mixers using diodes or ring mixers , commonly used in communication circuits . The circuit diagram of a ring mixer is given below . (Courtesy : Radio-electronics  ) Schematic of a double balanced mixer.  As you can see , this makes use of two transformers and a four diodes . For most of the HF work , switching diodes like 1N4148 suffice . However , for better performance Schottky diodes like 1N5711 can be made use of . For more information on the working of this mixer and construction aspects , I strongly recommend the excellent video by W2AEW on ring mixers given below .  So what I wish to explain in this video is a set of experiments carried out using a double balanced mixer which I shall call DB mixer for convenience :) The test gear consists of a DDS VFO , a crystal Colpitts oscillator , a variable  power supply , CRO , RTL-SDR and the PC sound card . The software tool...

RECEIVING SSTV FROM ISS ! Steps involved in decoding when using MMSSTV ......

Image
A very interesting mode in ham radio is SSTV and more interesting is the SSTV from ISS - the International Space Station ! Receiving the images from ISS is pretty simple . However many hams have some problems recording SSTV audio and decoding them using MMSSTV . My ham friends like OM Ramesh VU3RGB , OM Sulaiman VU3SMQ and OM Dhanesh VU3DHN encouraged me to make a blog post describing the various steps involved . 1) The first step is simple . Just tune to 145.800MHz in your VHF receiver and record the audio using some device like your smartphone,holding it near to your rig .It is better to use SDRs like RTLSDR to record audio using a computer. However my shack PC is QRT now , so ,I can't use SDR . Anyway be sure to use some excellent satellite tracking software like the Hamsatdroid (Android) or Orbitron (Windows) to guide you in tracking the ISS . 2) After recording , copy the recorded .amr file to your PC from phone . Use some tool to convert the amr to wav file . One excellen...

A simple guide to installing and using RTL-SDR and related software in Ubuntu

Image
Hello all ! In this post , let me help you install and use RTL-SDR and related software in Linux , specifically Ubuntu . The software being installed are  GNUradio and GQRX . GQRX I have tried this procedure in several systems running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS as well as Mint OS ( which is based on Ubuntu ) . The procedure assumes that you have access to root password and knows basics of Linux terminal. Moreover you need a working internet connection. If you don't know how to use the terminal , then please watch some youtube videos on the same . So let's start ! Step 0 Install Ubuntu ! This is the right decision that you can make . Linux is ideal for developers and hackers ( I mean hackers like Richard Stallman and not crackers ) . Step 1 Open a linux terminal ( Ctrl+Alt+T) and type the following command sudo apt-get update You will be prompted for the password . Give it . It won't be shown on the screen . This will update your Ubuntu installation and install th...
