Harry's Homebrew Homepages
by Harry Lythall - SM0VPO

Welcome to Harry's Homebrew Homepage for building hobby and amateur radio and electronic equipment (or brewing/distilling booze). If you do not understand the component identification standard I have adopted then see my Component Identification pages. These standards are very close to the European standards. Projects marked with are illustrated with photographs.

Most of these circuits are designed, tried and tested by myself. If you should find the odd errrror then I apologise most profusely, I really do! Many circuits can be built on the kitchen table (when the wife is out!). You may have to adjust the odd capacitor or coil a little. I have tried my best to be as accurate as possible, but please accept my apologies if I got anything wrong.

E-mail used to be a pain in the arse. It's not the sensible mail I object to, but all the silly stuff. Please use my Messageboard if you have any technical questions. I do try to answer all e-mail, but it is low prioority.

I must thank all who have supported HHH. I began the pages just for fun, but since I started them I have been learning a lot about several subjects from visitors. The homepages are constantly under construction and new projects will be added all the time.

2008

2008 saw 279 500 visitors to the site, which is a record high. Ill health continued and I was not able to work until about June, and even then only part time. Magnus Wahlberg, my step-son, set up a new messageboard - fantastic it is too :-) Now messages can be viewed for a lot longer, as long as there is interest. I was able to add quite a few more projects, and produce a couple of films. I was even able to post new projects as late as the night before the New Year.

2007

2007 saw 166 500 visitors to the site, which is a record low. I wonder if it is anything to do with the URL being so easy to remember? (satiric irony!). There were a few new projects, but not many. At the end of the year I got a cancer diagnosis and had bits taken out of me. But it means I will have more time to update the homepages after Christmas.

2006

2006 saw 182 000 visitors to the site, but during the year work on the house came between me any hamradio work, or updating the homepages. Maj-Lis's mother died, Maj-Lis broker her foot (again), and generally we have been plagued by a period of ill health. But in spite of this I was able to add a few projects through the year that did not require much time on the workbench.

2005

There were 202 000 visitors to the site during 2005. The www.home.se and www.spray.se sites were closed down for good, and http://sm0vpo.8m.com is only a shortcut to my main site. New projects were completed, including the simple stereo coder, and a couple of transmitters. There is more to come during 2006.

2004

During 2004 about 140,000 visitors were recorded to HHH. Telia have simplified my URL. Instead of being http://w1.859.telia.com/~u85920178 it is now http://web.telia.com/~u85920178. I had to get get a new messageboard after Emil was unable to continue hosting the board. I for one am very gratefull for his geneosity.

2003

In 2003 I had 186,000 visitors, most probably because the homepage address changed from something nice and simple, to http://w1.859.telia.com/~u85920178 which does not exactly roll off the tongue so easily. But it was better than last year. I really must get my own domain, but in the meantime, the shortcut http://come.to/sm0vpo is not so difficult to remember.

2002

Saw 144 000 visitors during the year. There were not so many visitors because of the demise of pmp3.net who kindly hosted my homepages.

2001

Saw a record 256 000 visitors during the year, making it a record year for me.

2000

Saw about 4377 visitors every week. That equates to a grand total of 227,595 visitors during the whole year.

1999

Saw about 2520 visitors every week by the end of the year. There were about 90,000 visitors during the whole year.

1998

Saw about 200 visitors every week. That was about 10,000 visitors during the whole year.

Have fun, de HARRY, Lunda, Sweden.
