W5ZCA Tailgate Presentaton @ 10:00 AM:
“Fox Hunting” or also known as radio direction finding, is an essential skill that any Amateur operator should possess. My project utilizes an Arduino microcontroller to produce a morse code signal which is sent to an audio pre-amp and then on to the mixer stage. The RF oscillator is a grounded based oscillator, which was based off Ulrich L. Rohde, N1UL and Ajay K. Poddar, AC2KG’s design which was featured in the 2022 Edition of the ARRL Handbook. This presentation was presented as my 2nd Capstone project in my EET 490 Capstone class and will describe the challenges experienced with working with circuits at RF frequencies.
