OK, I know this project page is a bit of a skeleton at this time without much content, but I'll get more content uploaded and documented soon!

You can see a photo of one prototype PCB of the RF stage (without components) I've uploaded already. The processing, amplification and filtering of the IF signal coming out of the mixer is done on a second, separate board not shown - as is the generation of the ramp or sweep signal which modulates the VCO frequency.
