He sells Some hard to find 3N211 fets and quite a few other parts as well as some interesting boards I bought a low noise J310 based amplifier board the kit is 20.00 I think , He has a very interesting digital step attenuator that reads out in dbm, that looks like a natural fit to the DDS, amp and step attenuator. and you have a very low coast small PLL based signal generator with general coverage!Just goggle SV1AFN and it will take you to his site.To put all this together may take someone who is versed in PIC programming since the board is set up as a vfo that could bring digital readout to a QRP project, I'll be in the hospital tomorrow part of the day for a routine procedure, but I'll be coping the mail as much as possible if anyone has questions or ideas.RegardsDaveN9ooq
