10/10/25 ready to start a new receiver.

I am thinking a JFET direct conversion receiver. it will consist of : RF Amp Mixer AF Amp LO Osc *I will probable use a 2n3904 for the AF output. Building a single stage is not to hard, the troubles start when feeding other stages. We will be looking at loses due to Z mismatching and shared power supplies. I will use LTspiceIV for the sim's. (more on this later) I reloaded my old HP desktok with a new OS and the tools for the project. (more on this as we proceed - I may use a couple of other tools?)
