10 GHz link stuff
-----------------

Artwork done at the ARRL lab from an initial cut by WD0FHG for the N6GN
10Ghz link design published in the ARRL Handbook, and elsewhere.

artwork.fix relates to problems/corrections on this artwork.

The pcb directory has the unzipped contents of pcb.zip which is in
postscript(.ps), HPGL(.plt) and hiwire(.pcb) ( hiwire?  A pc board
layout tool of some kind, used at the ARRL.)

uwvletter.txt is an informational mailing we made a while back which may
or may not be of value.

fsksense describes operation of the AFC in the presence of data. 

ifc.ps is a schematic of an ECL <-> TTL interface and external
clock/reset circuits I've used between the 904 MHz 256 Kbps radios and
MIO digital cards however the interface circuit is the same as used
for the 10 GHz link and may be useful to anyone wanting to drive the
microwave link from TTL levels like those of the Ottawa PI2 card.

Subject: 2 MBPS 10 GHz Link Boards Available

Receiver boards are now (at last!) available for the n6gn desinged,
2 MBPS, 10 GHz microwave link as described in the ARRL Handbook and
other places.  You'll still need to make the 1st IF board yourself,
but trust me, that's easy.  I didn't believe Glenn at first, just
follow the procedure in the article and it works!

The receiver board is 4-3/4 x 5-3/4", double sided, and drilled, *but
not plated through* (hence you'll have to solder top and bottom leads
in some cases).  This shouldn't be a big problem because there are no
signal traces on the component side--it's all ground plane.

Folks who helped make these boards available (though they may not all
want to admit it :-) are Glenn Elmore n6gn (of course), John Conner
wd0fhg, Ron Atkinson n8fow, Fred Reimers kf9gx, Bdale Garbee n3eua,
and Jon Bloom ke3z.

They're available from:

	Fred A. Reimers kf9gx
	FAR Circuits
	18N640 Field Ct.
	Dundee, IL  60118-9269

for $15.  Fred just shipped 8 to me for $5 postage, but I'm not sure
what the rate would be for smaller quantities.
