A Valve type Paraset, as near as possible, to the original using modern components

To save the schematic RIGHT CLICK within the graphic and use "SAVE PICTURE AS"

This paraset design came about after a lot of experimentation.

When you switch from Tx to Rx the receiver remains stable and on frequency.

You will note the detector is energized ALL THE TIME.

There is no crash in the headphones when switching between Tx and Rx .

The C2 has been tested  with a 26pf capacitor from pin 5 to pin 8 0n the 6V6 ensures stable and reliable keying  of all crystals but see also How our Paraset Works .

You may like to connect a high value resistor (1meg ohms R10) from the Ant terminal to Gnd to remove static build up on the antenna which is dangerous. The is particularly true when using a kite to support and antenna. LOOK OUT!
