SPRAT Errata Database.

SPRAT 1 (no date on cover)

G2FWA product detector:

D2 was shown the wrong way round. It should look like

this:
SPRAT 4 - Autumn 1975 The emitter resistor should be 1K.

W9SCH QRP transmitter circuit, top of G3YUQ DSB1:The legends 160 - 80 on the
page 12. buffer anode coil & switch should be reversed,
i.e to include the 300pF on the 160 position. Mod
from G8PG add 0.01uF between aerial connection
on PCB and aerial terminal to avois possible
shorts to battery.
SPRAT 11/12 - December 1977 The IN plug is shown shorted to earth, and S1C
is wrong. The ANT should go to the moving
G3PLB ATU: contact. Contacts 1 & 3 should be connected
together, then connected to the aerial end of
L1, and contact 2 should be joined to contact 2
on S1B.
SPRAT 20 - Autumn 1979 The capacitor (0.01uF) at L2A should not be
tapped to that coil, but connected between the
JU-6 circuit (page 5), 12v end (86ohm res.) and earth.
SPRAT 27 - Summer 1981 VR2 should be 4.7K. The inductance above L11 is
an RFC as RFC 1 to 5.
G4DFH 144 - 14Mhz converter
G3ZQA Kite transmitter. The + connection
should be made to both outside contacts of the
pole connected to the oscillator.
SPRAT 28 - Autumn 1981 The transmit mixer may appear to have the G2
of the dual gate Mosfet joined to the source
GM3OXX Transverter. resistor. This should be a "hump" rather than a
"dot".
SPRAT 34 - Spring 1983 The driver of the transmit circuit (2N3053)
shows a ground connection from the top of one
Page 3. section of the 10t bifilar coil. This should be via
a decoupling capacitor of 0.1uF
SPRAT 35 - Summer 1983 Point "B" goes to the 2N3053 input at 0.01uF
10 MHz transverter (page.7)
SPRAT 35 - Summer 1983 (p.8) Top coupling (say @ 10pF) required
between the two sections of the input tuned
Altern Rx circuit circuits (across top of the two 22pF capacitors).
SPRAT 38 - Spring 1984 We advise readers not to build it in it's current
form. There are several errors in the article.
GRILO valve transmitter.
SPRAT 38 - Spring 1984 The author advises that for better operation,
another 1N914 and 10k resistor (as shown)
DF4SG - Premix VFO. should be added to ensure the xtal is off when
in 10Mhz mode

SPRAT 45 - Winter 1985 In the third paragraph, 500uA should read

"500mA". In the last paragraph, 100uF should
160m Transverter read 1000uF. There were two omissions from
the circuit; The cap. coupling the RF amp to the
mixer is 1nF, and the fixed cap. across L2 is
180pF.
SPRAT 46 - Spring 1986 The resistor between the intermediate buffer
and the second buffer is 4.7k Increasing the
Fishin' box rig gate resistor in the Rx detector to 2M improves
sensitivity by 6dB Lifting the gate lead off the
tap, and onto the hot end of tuned circuit also
improves signal strength.
SPRAT 47 - Summer 1986 There should be joint at the junction of the 22K
res. and the 10nF cap. above the base of the
Pocket Rx: BF115. The emitter of the BC337 is shown the
wrong way round, it should go to the top (junc.
of 47uF and 220R The tapping for L2 should be
about midpoint in the winding.
SPRAT 48 - Autumn 1986 "A 2N3504 or BFY51 gives more drive & power"
It should read a "2N3504 gives more drive &
Page 17, para 4 reads: power, but a BFY50,51 or 52 can also be used".
SPRAT 48 - Autumn 1986
The transistor tester section, resistors should
Rock's test box. be shown as here:-

SPRAT 49 - Winter 1986 table 1 should read: a & B=3350/f, C=2370/f,

D=700/f, E=1336/f. The table is correct in the
G3LDO - Page 14 original article (SPRAT 30, page 10).

SPRAT 49 - Winter 1986 The lower winding of T1 should be centre tapped

to earth for D1 and D2 to function.
The Tenor Rx: - Page 9
SPRAT 52 - Autumn 1987 Link between top of L1 & 12v rail should not be
present (it shorts the 220R res.) The PC board
Universal Tx circuit: is correct.

SPRAT 52 - Autumn 1987 A better choice of trimmer would be 7-65pF

GM4JMU Hilltopper:

SPRAT 52 - Autumn 1987 A 120pF fixed cap. should be shown between the
output and the junc. of the two 100pF capacitors
G3FCK 80m PA: and the coil.

SPRAT 63 - Summer 1990 IC2 Pins 2 & 10 should be tied to +5v as for pin
16
Huff & Puff circuit.

SPRAT 66 - Winter 1991 Line 11 ... running frequency (not trimming

frequency) "Component X" is 22uF, not mF.
IC735 Mods.

SPRAT 69 - Winter 1991 Pins 4,7 & 8 on IC2 are shown earthed - it
should also show pins 9 & 12 to earth.
FE1MOG Keyer.
SPRAT 69 - Winter 1991 The base resistor of the 2N2222 should be
220k and should be connected to +5v, not +12v.
G7BCJ Phasing Rx. Sideband select switch, the top L.H. 10k should
be joined to the drain of the top 2N3819, not
the source. On A.F. amp add +volts at pin 6,
ground pins 2&4 LM386
SPRAT 71 - Summer 1992 The power supply to the VN66 devices goes to a
centre tap on the coil L1, not L2. Also there is a
The NAT Tx. dot placed on the junction of the gate of the
bottom VN66 and the source-ground lead -
there is no connection there.
SPRAT 72 - Autumn 1992 Note error in pin numbering of NE602.

SPRAT 72 - Autumn 1992 Set RVl such that the meter is around full scale on some
convenient calibration mark, then connect resistors or a
variable across the meter until it indicates exactly half the

Norbert noticed some problems with oscillation
if varying the frequency over 450Hz. The supply
current was rising, raising the voltage at R9 (1K)
so the voltage at R4/5 decreased. Norbert
solved this by changing R9 to a 78L09 regulator.

The error is that the connection “A” should be

to the collector of the BF509 rather than the
base as shown. Also, more obviously, there
should be a chassis symbol on to the bottom

VXO conversion for the 20m MFJ Cub mount components. (I had to check the circuit
and double-check by removing the cover.) Sorry
for not making this clear. Something that came
to light recently on my 30 metre Cub with Ken's
mod [SPRAT 112], was a VHF oscillation. This
was quite hard to detect, but manifested itself
by the tuning not being completely smooth,
having one or two glitches. A small ferrite bead
(FX1115 or similar) on one leg of the crystal
cured it, and all's well. The '612 can operate at
hundreds of MHz so it's not too surprising. I
fitted the bead to my 20 metre Cub as well. - lan
