Two-Transistor Regenerative Receiver
Published in issue 427, July/August 2012
Based on an earlier regenerative receiver circuit, the author developed an especially simple but high-performance version using modern components — a regenerative receiver using only garden-variety transistors, but with good reception characteristics.
Resistors R1,R5 = 1MOhm R2 = 220Ohm R3 = 100kOhm R4 = 33kOhm R6 = 4.7kOhm P1 = 10kOhm potentiometer, linear Capacitors C1 = 500pF tuning capacitor, see text C2,C4,C7 = 100nF ceramic, pitch 2.5mm C3,C5 = 1nF ceramic, pitch 5mm C6 = 220µF 16V, radial, pitch 5mm Inductors L1 = loop antenna, 20 turns ECW, tap at 5 turns (see text) Semiconductors T1,T2 = BC548 Miscellaneous Prototyping board type Elex-1 9V battery w. clip Small loudspeaker or headphones
