Diode Radio | Project 4/10 | Maxitronix 10in1 | In The Lab With Jay Jay

This post is part of my video blog: In The Lab With Jay Jay.

In this video I do the fourth Maxitronix 10in1 Electronic Project Lab project: Diode Radio.

This experiment is a little disappointing, I couldn’t make it work in the end.

But I did learn not to leave my coffee cup on my project mat because it interferes with the thermal cam!

Standard Aussie home television aerial RF coaxial connector

Man I had a lot of trouble figuring out what these things are called. I can tell you that they are not called F-Type, BNC, SMA, N-Type, or PL-259 connectors. In the I end I asked about this and learned these connectors are called Belling-Lee connectors, also known as IEC 169-2 Female/Male. But if you search for “IEC connector” (which these things are apparently sometimes called) you will only find the power adapters, not these aerial connectors.
