The Low Pass Filters
The low pass filter was developed especially for the „Tramp-8“ and the
„Black Forest Transceiver“ of the DL-QRP-AG and is consequently used for
the SPEAKY too. The parts for the low pass filters are selected for an output
power up to 15 Watts.
The group contains 3 low pass filters and the switching logic for 8 bands:
Low pass 1
for 80 m band
Low pass 2
for 40 and 30 m bands
Low pass 3
for 20 and 17 m bands
For the 15, 12 and 10 m bands the signals passes though the group, as
above of 21 MHz the cascaded 36 MHz filter on the basic board is already
active.
All switching is done bei SIL-Relays making sure that the brilliant strong-
signal capability of the device does not degrades.
The early ideas where to use SMT capacitors but some values where not
available for sufficient high voltages. Therefore they were substituted by
ceramic- or multilayer capacitors of high quality with a 1/10" raster and are
soldered on the PC board directly.
