SPUTNIK 40 - REGENERATIVE RECEIVER

CW / SSB / AM

40 meter band: aprox 6.950MHz to 7.200MHz

- The receiver it's not as sensitive as as a JFET one is, but it's a great
project to build with good performance.
- The audio level depends a lot on the speaker you use. Don't use small
speakers, as they have low performance.
- For good results use a good antenna, like a hald wave end fed wire for the
40m band.

Posting the schematic in any magazine or online media platform is not allowed

The file to print is already prepared ( for toner transer method ) so there is
no need to chnage or edit the image.
Just print it as it is, making sure you set the printer to print with ought any
margins.
Check the dimensions of the printed image before transfering it to the PCB
( 100mm x 75mm ).

Thank You and 73 !

The Schematic and PCB design were designed in Express PCB and Express SCH.
You also have here the schematic and PCB design files in case you want to make
any changes.
I also included PDF files with the prints. Use whatever works for you.
