Yesterday I received the Si570 Controller and Frequency Generator Kit by K5JHF and K5BCQ.
And today, after 3 to 4 hours work the kit was ready for a test spin. My unit has the LVDS Si570 chip, the FIN-1002 LVDS to LVTTL converter with the TC1-1TG2+ output transformer. Here are a few pix…..

A few hours work and the kit is ready and working.
Generator output @ 56.320Mhz
I would like to order the kit, but don’t get a reply when I send a mail. How did you order, and pay for the kit?

Sorry to say, that so far, ALL SI570 pic or avr controlled, stand alone software suffers from a severe glitch whilst tuning. A very annoying tuning noise ! So far, hardly ever is mentioned, nor solved.
