so i built a breadboarded PLL to figure out tompolks circuit problem i had a while back (which was VCO resistors BTW) and i've been experimenting with different output stages and modulation schemes. so i went to hook a guitar up to it because it was the nearest audio source, tuned in on a clock radio, and yea, the guitar has hot pickups and it was muddy and overdriven on 1610, but when i tuned the clock radio i was using as a test radio to the side of the signal, i got the most crushing heaviest face-melting doom fuzz i've ever heard. i decided this accidental find must be put through bigger speakers so clearly i need to now build a small narrow band reciever to put literally directly coupled to the transmitter and the audio directly coupled to a full stack peavy amp in the music room. so this is what i accomplished. built a homemade PLL transmitter with a 2n7000 mosfet output, drank a bunch of beers, decided the art of part 15 is gonna be combined with the art of making guitar effects not because it sounds good or is 100% modulation. but because it sounds bad and is overdriven and off-frequency
The world is ready for a whole new guitar sound.
Imagine Guitar Centers main display area dedicated to RADIODIRTYSPRINGS1700 FUNGE FUZZ GUITARS with the body shaped like a large beer can.
Get some major musician to switch instruments and take up the RDS1700 FF.
You're on your way man, and you have Part 15 to thank.
oh it's ugly as all hell lol. i decided i have 3 1700 khz crystals which are now completely useless because of that station in NY which plays awful disney garbage so they will be used in this effect pedal for sure. im pretty sure no matter what freq i use, it's gonna be field-stength compliant. there is a wierd noiseiscian in the hartford CT area who i think is getting one. im putting an antenna on his so he can pick up more electrical noise and static since that's his jam
by the way, the admin can move this thread to wherever. idk why i posted it in antennas.
RADIODIRTYSPRINGS1700 explained... "why i posted it in antennas."
A guitar string is resonant at a particular audio frequency and transmits that signal over a distance. Guitars have several antennas, six I think.
