ssb receiver

SSB (single sideband) modulation is used almost exclusively as the modulation . method in the 20, 40 and 80 metre amateur bands, and because of this it is possible to construct a simple amateur receiver using a single demodulator (for SSB signals). With this small compromise it is possible to produce a simple but effective design for the reception of SSB signals in the above- mentioned bands, using only two coils. This receiver has, among its other desirable properties, a sensitivity of 0.5 µV.
