Ham it Up 1.3 & 1.3+ Converter HF 0.5-50Mhz Nooelec

Nooelec's Ham It Up v1.3 is an up-converter HF, equipped with the 125Mhz filter soldered on the PCB and allows to listen to all MF / HF bands from 0.5 to 50 Mhz, in all modes of modulation, from a RTL-SDR RTL2832U usb stick with R820T / R820T2 or E4000 tuner, or any VHF or SDR receiver covering 125Mhz-175Mhz.

The Ham it up card is compatible with the HackRF One and can be used in transmission with an input power of up to 5mW.

Optional: New version Ham it up 1.3+ PLUS with TCXO. The PLUS version covers from 300khz to 65Mhz and integrates a fully assembled noise source circuit, which allows it to be used for all RF projects, calibration and tuning of filters, amplifiers and attenuators via the additional SMA output Noise Source ( NS output).

NOTE: The Ham It Up v1.3 metal case is compatible with 1.3 and 1.3+ (Plus). The previous Ham It Up 1.2 case is NOT compatible with 1.3 or 1.3+.

Data sheet

Specifications Ham It Up v1.3 Nooelec

Female SMA for both input and output for a wide array of connectivity options
In-line SMA connectors. Much easier to connect and manipulate than side-by-side SMA connectors
Antenna protection on RF input-in-circuit in both enable and passthrough-mode to protect your Ham It Up & SDR from stray ESD
All critical components sourced exclusively from North American parts distributors
Only ultra-low-noise components used in the signal path
Ultra-high-Q, low ESR inductors and capacitors used for all filters
Powered by a sturdy & common USB-B USB socket for a multitude of power input options
RF-suitable power supply regulation (LP5907)
PTC fuse on USB power input to protect your Ham It Up upconverter from short circuits
Upconverter enable/passthrough toggle switch -less fiddling with small, delicate cables and connectors
125MHz oscillator for improved sensitivity (away from high-traffic RF zones, like broadcast FM)
Stable <25ppm oscillator included
LO disabled in passthrough mode
A maximum input level of +1dBm with LO at +7dBm
High-quality 2-layer PCB with ENIG finish
Small, light-weight PCB (just 3.8" x 1.9")
Designed to fit standard off-the-shelf Hammond enclosures
7 mounting holes for standard PC screws

BONUS! We had space left on the PCB, so rather than waste it we have added a noise source circuit at no additional cost. Details of the noise source circuit are available with the project documentation.

Major v1.3 changes vs. v1.2

Input, output and LO filters reconfigured for great sensitivity and selectivity improvements
New ultra low-noise linear power regulator (LP5907), with voltage noise under 10 µVRMS
Optional battery-powered operation for DXing on the go!
New side-mount LED indicators, easily visible with or without an enclosure (Green = upconvert mode enabled; Yellow = USB powered; Red = low voltage)
Fully-assembled broadband RF noise source built-in (Note: SMA output jack excluded to comply with government regulations, but can be purchased separately)
u.FL socket (also known as IPX and UMCC) available for optional clock injection from an external clock source, should a higher-accuracy clock be desired
5 other u.FL socket mounting footprints for simplified testing, troubleshooting and demonstrational purposes
Additional mounting holes to facilitate custom installations
Sturdy right-angle SMA connectors to improve spacing tolerances and ensure physical compatibility with our machined aluminum enclosures (enclosures sold separately)
Redesigned for a surface-mount oscillator to eliminate potential oscillator-desocketing issues

Main changes Ham It Up v1.3 vs. v1.3+ (Plus)

A 125MHz TCXO (0.5PPM), japanese custom built exclusively for NooElec, is included and pre-installed, providing more accurate and stable tuning in any environment.
Ultra-low distortion ceramic capacitors, custom built exclusively for NooElec, allowed to extend the range of the Ham It Up Plus all the way down to 300Hz.
The separate noise source circuit is fully assembled, to be used for RF projects, including calibration and tuning of filters, amplifiers and attenuators.
Additional SMA connector for the noise source circuit.
