Single Sideband Modulation Techniques

Ed Fong, WB6IQN

This month’s meeting convened at Covington. COVID-19 Precautions applied. This meeting was available on-line via Zoom. Mini Flea Market at this meeting.

As a related follow-on to Jeff Anderson’s talk last November on his homebrew HF direct sampling digital transceiver, Ed Fong WB6IQN explains the “phase method” of single-sideband (SSB) generation and detection clearly with a minimum of complex mathematics. This type of SSB generation is used in modern SDR transceivers, including Elecraft, Flex Radio, Icom, Kenwood, Yasesu, and others.

Single-sideband (SSB) appeared in Amateur Radio in the 1950’s. Early equipment generated SSB by using very narrow filters. The method was used in transmitters made by Collins, Swan, Heathkit, Kenwood, Icom, Yaesu, and others. Historically, an AM signal was generated with DSB (double side band) with carrier. The carrier could be rejected with some clever circuitry but the filtering of the adjacent sideband was typically achieved with sharp, narrow analog filters such as crystal filters or mechanical filters pioneered by Collins.

However, analog filters are expensive. With the advent of integrated circuits, signals can be processed digitally, and expensive nalog filters are no longer needed. New methods of SSB modulation and demodulation have lower size, weight, and cost. Come and see how the magic is achieved in the new generation of SSB radios.

Appropriately, the main raffle prize is an uSDX+ all mode HF transceiver which uses the very technique described in Ed's talk.

Ed Fong, WB6IQN, is the owner of Ed’s Antennas https://edsantennas.weebly.com. He is the inventor of the patented DBJ-1, DBJ-2, and TBJ-1 antennas which are extremely popular among ham and commercial communicators.

More than 12,000 of these antennas have been sold to hams, commercial users, and agencies. Ed's antennas have been featured in QST (March 2017, February 2003 and March 2007), CQ (Summer 2012), ARRL Antenna Compendium Vol 8, and ARRL VHF/UHF Antenna Classics.

Ed is a FARS director. He is on the faculty of UC Santa Cruz Silicon Valley, where he teaches RF Wireless Communications and I/O Design Fundamentals.

Before that he was with UC Berkeley and taught RF Wireless from 1998 to 2011. Ed previously spoke to FARS on ground-independent vertical antennas (August 2019) and DMR radio (April 2018).

Advanced Antenna Modeling Tips, Tricks, and Techniques

Steve Stearns, K6OIK

This month’s meeting is scheduled to convene at Covington. COVID-19 Precautions apply. This meeting is also available on-line via Zoom.

Suppose you want to include insulated wire or a tree or two in your antenna model. Suppose you want the modeling software to give you an accurate result. Steve Stearns, K6OIK, discusses advanced antenna modeling tips, tricks, and techniques. He summarizes low-cost or free antenna modeling programs that radio amateurs can use, ranking them by accuracy and limitations. Next, he shows three different methods to model insulated wires. Finally, he shows how dielectric objects, such as trees, may be modeled with thin-wire codes.

Update on Solar Cycle 25 and Ionospheric Conditions for HF Radio Propagation

Carl Luetzelschwab, K9LA

This month’s meeting is scheduled to convene at Covington. COVID-19 Precautions apply. This meeting is also available on-line via Zoom.

Solar Cycle 25 is well underway. Carl returns to review Cycle 25 with the latest data and predictions. He talks about 10-meter long path and perhaps some 6-meter topics.

Carl's presentation is available on-line.

Carl Luetzelschwab K9LA is a long-time Amateur Radio operator, DXer, electrical engineer, writer, and HamSCI member. He curates a tremendous amount of propagation and radio science information at his website, https://k9la.us.

He was first licensed as a Novice in October 1961 with the call WN9AVT. He is a frequent writer and contributor to Amateur Radio magazines on the topic of radio propagation and contesting. His interest in propagation dates to his college days at Purdue University (BSEE 1969, MSEE 1972).

Carl had a 41-year career as an RF design engineer with Motorola and later with Raytheon (formerly Magnavox), where he designed solid-state RF power amplifiers. He retired in October 2013 to pursue Amateur Radio full time.

He has been on DXpeditions (YK9A, OJ0, and many trips to ZF as ZF2LA and ZF2YL) with his wife Vicky, AE9YL. He is on the Top of the Honor Roll (worked all current DXCC entities). He has 160-Meter DXCC and needs four zones on 80-Meters for 5BWAZ.

The banquet is held at:

The Blue Pheasant
22100 Stevens Creek Blvd
Cupertino, CA 95014

Reservations are required.

Tom Lee paid his way through MIT by working at places like Frank Kent's TV and Radio Service and Hughes Aircraft. His 1989 doctoral thesis at MIT described the world's first CMOS radio. He has been at Stanford University since 1994, helped design PLLs for several microprocessors from DEC and AMD, and has founded or co-founded several companies.

He is an IEEE and Packard Foundation Fellow, and is also the 2011 recipient of the Ho-Am Prize in Engineering (informally known as "The Korean Nobel"). He is a past Director of DARPA's Microsystems Technology Office, and owns between 100 and 200 oscilloscopes, thousands of vacuum tubes and kilograms of obsolete semiconductors. No one, including himself, quite knows why.

Repeaters to Go… Wild!

Steve, KC6ZKT

This month’s meeting is scheduled to convene at Covington. COVID-19 Precautions apply. This meeting is also available on-line via Zoom.

Steve, KC6ZKT, repeats his popular presentation on repeaters, first presented to FARS October 2020. What if you're organizing a backcountry event where there is no communications infrastructure? It's the kind of problem that amateur radio operators are uniquely suited to solve. What if your repeater site is only accessible on foot? Then you need a portable repeater system that can be carried to site in a backpack.

Steve talks about design requirements for highly portable repeaters systems, show and demonstrate two 70-cm systems he has built for public service events (and a third in-progress), and review events where they were used.

Steve Sergeant, KC6ZKT, is a third-generation ham. Originally licensed Novice class in 1972, his licensed expired, but in 1991 he was granted KC6ZKT as a Technician and has since upgraded to Extra.

Steve has a long career in audio engineering for professional and later consumer audio system integration. He currently works at Dolby Laboratories as an Applications Engineer.

Steve is on the boards of the WVARA and the Nature Sounds Society. He is also a volunteer backpacking instructor for the Sierra Club, who teaches in ultralight techniques, and a Uniformed Volunteer for California State Parks at Henry Coe State Park.
