I got my copy on friday. A MRF901 oscillator at a claimed 1169.44 Mhz with the 9th harmonic of 10.525 Ghz, Using a PC board tuned circuit. (Yea sure) The claimed range is 12 feet. I'm surprised they didn't publish this in April. > I think the FCC might object otherwise. That never stopped Radio Electronics. The fuss that got raised after their article on a UHF channel transmitter for home video cameras was amusing. markz@ssc.uucp
