This ain't rocket science, but a fairly simple project that can be finished in 3 nights...  Upper left you will see the pierce oscillator coupled by the olive colored 250pf cap  to a 2n2222A preamp..  I lowered the emitter resistor on the upper middle (Q2) to 22  ohms  to get a little more output ~ 70 mw.  Why the yellow and red lines from the front panel????  Well, should I contact someone with  1 watt, and can flip the switch and try  160 mw.... Note, I have 2 tweeked tank circuits for low and high power.   Reducing my power  10 dB will bring my  signal down .. maybe 2 S-units...  If I'm trully a 599, then 579 should be acceptable  if noise  is much lower..  On the lower left, I see the makings for a compact 30 mtr receiver... Stay tuned...
