    1) The document describes a homebrew 2m receiver circuit designed for the 144-146MHz band using the MC3357 and LA1186 integrated circuits. 2) The receiver was tested receiving signals from 145.625MHz and 145.650MHz repeaters with a homebrew ground plane antenna, exhibiting excellent sensitivity without a preamplifier. 3) The local oscillator was reported to be very stable, drifting less than 50kHz over 2 minutes of reception and stabilizing fully within 24 hours of power on. The receiver is suitable for shortwave listening, amateur radio operation, and monitoring the 2m band.

    experiment was done when I was a SWL lesson
    145.625MHz Repeater / 145.650MHz Repeater 59 Signal
    Repot With my Home brew ground plan Antenna 10 feet
    height Excellent Sensitivity without preamp . Local osc are
    very stable when I on Rx 2min in drift +- 50khz and get very
    stable in 24 hrs

    This Receiver good perform for SWL / Ham operators / Monitor 2m band.
    MC3357 DESCRIPTION

    Includes Oscillator, Mixer, Limiting Amplifier,
    Quadrature Discriminator,
    Active Filter, Squelch, Scan Control, and Mute
    Switch.
    Excellent Sensitivity: Input Limiting Voltage
    ( 3.0 dB) = 5.0 mV (Typical)
    Low Number of External Parts
    Required





    LA1186 Features and Functions

    Contains RF amplifier, MIX, OSC, AFC diode.

    Operating voltage: 1.8 to 8.0V.
    Improvement in cross modulation characteristic
    due to the use of double-balanced MIX.
    Improvement in strong input characteristic.
    Less spurious radiation from local OSC.
    TV (1 to 12 channel) receive capability.

    This Receiver good perform for SWL / Ham operators / Monitor 2m
    band. Very stable LOCAL VCO.
    First on the Rx Normal power on LED light up half (the power indicator )
    then Tune the our Repeater 145.625MHz in lesion the signal wait for
    1-5min fine tune the Rx then ok now can use contuses 24hour
    .Try it and sent me a Photo and result via E mail
