Hello Every Body, I found very nice site for a doppler direction finder Dopplerjev iskalnik smeri http://matrix.uni-mb.si/projekti/objava/vsebina/91/ All circuit and sources are in English on their sites. I think it only needs softswitching so just ad 4 transistors to it. See my supersimplesounddoppler de luxe circuits hi. The Doppler gets much beter with soft switching for weak signals and strong adjacent channel signals. Further I saw that DopplerSys has software for an Android Smart Phone http://www.dopsys.com/software/MPT%20User%20Interface.html So Happy Hunting and Building |

Hello Every Body, Now I retry to get the crossloops and sense antenna running on my sounddoppler software with an Am radio on abt 3.6MHz The two loops are tuned by separate C's The meaning is that a loop + sense antenna gives a 1 + cos(phi) pattern Bij switching the loops + sense I get four directions and these can be detected bij SoundDoppler running with SinCos(Correlation detector). So any advice welcome I am building now the new electronics for it see the diagram below. The core is something like t50-2 with trifilair windings 3 x 8 to 10 turns I think. |

PA3BNX: How much of these circuits do I need If I'am using a RTL-SDR? I was thinking I might need only the antenna switcher, but then I see it has a 5-pin din that goes to God only knows where. Thanks. |

Hello All, You do need a reciever with FM for the doppler It's not possible Yet to do it with just an SDR DVBT T820T Because you have latency in the I en Q stream from the stick So you need a separate FM RX And a generator like the 4017circuit and a antenna array switcher and 4 antenna's The 5pin Din connector is for the control conection from 4017 generator to the switcher unit Every wire in the 5 pin din switches just an antenna on and off through the diodes on the antenna switcher So 4 wires and earth wire It's all in the program zip file SoundDopplerAll142a.zip Today I did made pictures of the CrossLoop with sens antenna for 3.6 MHz with the soundcard interface This must run with an Am 3.6MHz reciever It works quite wel even indoor hi. See picture below. |

These boards are connected by wires close together. --- End quote --- There are errors in this PE0SSB layout. Actually it's 1 error which is repeated for all 4 Antenna Switch logic Controller circuits. I found out when i built this DDF96 3 years ago. The Errors on this board are.: R43 Needs to be connected to R10, not to R11 R44 Needs to be connected to R22, not to R23 R45 Needs to be connected to R16, not to R17 R46 Needs to be connected to R4, not to R5 Please check the circuit (from the PE0SSB Website) with the layout of this board and you will see. Here is a Picture of the corrected Version.: |
