Alt. hou. gh only a "'si.mp'le dcrlcc, the'Aovo circuit has proved a very goo'd one -
oiroai-fcs of a Pierce Oscillator' ( transistor iso d) -ippe'ar -to be conspicuous by
-fcheir absence in taost aanualg, This one was 'built in & small plas-fcio bo^
appro2;» 3" x2" z 1 1/2" with sockets for raos-b Xtal holders wired in parellel.
A sinple Audio Oscillator (as on Page 70 of -the R. S?G. B. Handbook) was built
in the sane. box with a separate on / off switch for easy identiffcca-tion of the
carrier - it v/as found that this audio could Tse fed into the Pierce alnost
anywhere, the junction of. the 1k resistor and -the R. FoCo being a most suitable
point to ge-t at. The prototype is being used by -the v/riter as a freq. ucncy
spotter in a commercial applica-tion and has proved a very useful pocket
sized device.
