RGO ONE on Dayton Hamvention 2018

RGO ONE homemade transceiver will be presented during this year HAM convention in Xenia, OH (18-20 may 2018). We welcome everybody to visit our booth #8014. Congrats for friends from AMECO who will give us a shelter. Right after the

Rgo ONE internal iambic memory keyer

Rgo ONE HF transceiver has built in CW iambic memory keyer. 1. Speed 5 – 45 WPM 2. Keying mode – Curtis A; CMOS B (Accu keyer;CMOS keyer but with 30% more tolerance) 3. 4 memory locations with 128 symbols

IF/AF unit

This unit includes the following: intermediate frequency IF amplification – MC1350 optional crystal filter (4 pole variable crystal Jones type filter) RX product detector – SA612 AF preamplifier – MC33079DG RX MUTE and sidetone input circuitry AF final amplifier –

MIC amplifier, DSB, CW modulator unit – SSBGEN

In order to form DSB/CW modulation on TX, a SSBGEN board is used. It consists of the following parts: Microphone preamplifier and TX audio amplifier – TL082 Switched input: LINE IN or MIC (MUX 4053) DSB modulator – SA612 CW

BAND PASS FILTERS

Six band pass filters were built to cover 10-80m bands on RX. Schematic utilizes Skywork solutions AS169 PHEMT GaAs SPDT switches, used in modern wirelless equipments. In order to perform individually “fine tune” a variable coil inductors are used. The

Custom made control knobs

Three types control knobs are used in this project: MAIN dial knob – for VFO frequency tune ENCODER knobs – various functions DUAL CONCENTRIC knobs – AF/RF gain control

FACE PANEL MOLD PLASTICS OR ALUMINUM MACHINED

To bring more professional and stylish appearance we decided to design custom front panel especially for this project. Next question was: Injection plastic mold or machined aluminum First, we made one prototype of machined aluminum in order to test if

MOSFET LINEAR POWER AMPLIFIER 50 WATTS

Final 50W amplifier is designed using 4pcs. QFET N-MOS FAIRCHILD FQP13N10 transistor. The module consist of three stages: predriver with NXP PD85004, driver in push-pull configuration (2xPD85004) and final unit utilizing 4pcs. (2 by 2 push-pull in parallel) FQP13N10 transistors

LOW PASS FILTER BLOCK 3.5-30MHz

This board consist of the following modules: 5 sub PCB with low pass filters chebyshev type for all HF bands. There is place where to be nested one optional LPF subboard (for 160m) High voltage (210V) scheme (voltage tripler) Antenna
