I saw plans for a magic eye tuning indicator on Phils old radio site.
It was listed as being for a Halli. S-19R or S-20R but is adaptable to
other rigs. 73 George KB2Z

A Lot of guys are interested in hearing how their rigs sound on-air, but
due to strong signals
in the receiver, receiver being muted, etc... it's difficult to get a
-real good- idea of how it
"sounds".
What would it take to build a 'crystal set' to tune 75m? Simple diode
detection, possibly
some sort of attenuation to keep the input signal down, and a set of
cheap headphones...
Fun Projects that have a purpose!
