I've always got a couple of projects going and ideas for things I want to do next. I've put together these project pages for a couple of reasons. First, we all like to show off some of the projects we're proud of. Second, I hope that some of the information will encourage you to undertake your own projects--these projects were fun and I hope that comes through as much as the technical information. And finally, if you're thinking about building something along the lines of one of these project I hope that sharing some of the knowledge I've gained in the college of hard knocks makes it easier for you.

So here they are!

• My first QRP project--the FOXX-3 Transciever kit built into an Altoids tin.
• How to rebuild a regulated power supply for use with direct conversion receivers.
• See my version of the classic Tuna Tin 2 Transmitter.
• The one and only Cantenna Jr. QRP Dummy Antenna.
• My K10 Memory Keyer--for those of us who make a lot of calls before we get a contact...
• The TenTec 1340 QRP Transceiver Kit.
• Build a simple Crystal Tester.
• A high-voltage supply for tube projects.
• The TenTec 1253 Regen Receiver Kit--this thing is slick!!!
• On-going tube projects

Coming up I've got a two-tone test signal generator that I need before I can finish my Ten-Tec 6 meter transverter kit. An I've still my my K1EL keyer and NorCal Balanced Line Tuner (BLT) to go. And somewhere in there I want to fit a tune-up of my Heathkit SW-717.

I'm also doing a lot of research on vacuum tube projects. Right now I'm looking at building a power supply, regen receiver, and a simple transmitter...
