It was a Rocky few days getting the MHST to receive and two problems were traced to hardware failures. Those have been fixed.
Each Quadrature LO signal is run through a 10K pot so the drive levels can be fine turned to the same input level to the ADE-1's. One of the pots would not change value and was set for minimum output. I replaced both pots.
I had to build a small circuit board to house an ADE-1 since the on-board pads from soldering several times the pads lifted off the base. That was a great repair and highlights the ADE-1's mounted on a small circuit board and available from mostlydiyrf.com can easily be integrated into a Manhattan style board.
I still have a challenge to get it to transmit and that is the next phase.
Stay tuned and check n6qw.blogspot.com.
