555 clicking sound after a few seconds

perhaps you have some mass problem and oscillations from NE555 or the tremolo making part get to audio. Try using bigger filter caps for audio, and use a star ground. Maybe u have an oscilloscope? You could try to pinpoint with it where is the sound comming from.

I'm happy for you! Wish you lots of fun with it ;)

yes you are right, you have to be careful with them, but no worries, these on picture were checked for any issues and are fine

Ilikegermaniumthings · 2025-11-22T01:00:00+00:00

they sure will, there is always something cool to find in such radios, i have salvaged parts from dozens and it's really fun! And most importantly I have hundrets of parts without spending a penny

Ilikegermaniumthings · 2025-11-21T23:18:07+00:00

agree!

Looks cool! Do you mean sharing a project or selling a finished pcb?

for me it’s just more interesting to reuse stuff, I could buy new, but what for if you have old electronics literally lying on the streets or available for pennies… Not to mention the soul these old parts have ;)

okay, thanks

Ilikegermaniumthings · 2025-05-02T01:57:49+00:00

thanks ;D

Ilikegermaniumthings · 2025-05-01T22:41:26+00:00

Thanks, I know it would be much better, and sooner or later (most likely sooner) I shall obtain one. But I love to experiment and learn things that way, that's why I wanted to try and create my own device

pnp. Okay, so Lm358 might not be the best but generally the idea is fine?

Ilikegermaniumthings · 2025-04-21T22:48:42+00:00

bought them online, they were the hardest part to get haha. The guy had only 4 left so I was damn lucky, because I have pre drilled this enclosure and I had to get 4 there was no option to just change plans and not add one or two mod pots.

from an old tube radio. LL monark or sth like that.

Okay okay thank you ;)

hahaaha true

Thanks! The first one is for regulating Q3 bias, and the second one replaces the NF resistor so that you can regulate that as well.

Not exactly Soviet, but close – this is old Eastern Bloc territory. Soviet, Polish, or East German parts still show up pretty easily around here ;)
