AA7 • 4 INTR ODU CTI ON TO THE AA7 We believe that you will discover and ag ree with us that your new AA7 is the best VALUE in a true re ceiver antenna. In its s implest form, an “act ive antenna” is a small ante nna going throug h an RF pr eamplifier to a receiver.
AA7 • 5 The dual-g ate MOSFET amp lifier circuit (Q 1), selected with S1 in the “o ut” position is designated the HF preamp circuit, due to the exce ptionally low noise level of its operation. This is ideal for enhan cing weak C W -SSB signals. This amplif ier perform s the true “a ctive antenna” fu nction of the AA7.
AA7 • 6 figure of the amplifier circ uit which amplifies the signal from the ante nna rod before it gets to th e receiver's RF input. We mention these things, with no need to get into a lot of .

AA7 • 10 • SOLDER ALL wires or pins of the part, whether the 2 wires of a resistor or the 3 or 4 wires of a transistor. • Trim or Nip all excess wires extending beyond each solder connection, taking care that wire trimm ings do not beco me lodged in PC-board solder connections.
AA7 • 11 14. Install R3, 100K [brown-black-yellow]. 15. If you have co mpleted Steps 4 through 14 correctly, you now have the 4 holes for Q1 surrounded by other parts, mak ing it easy to find! Examin e Q1, the dual-ga te MOSFET. The sch ematic diagram shows why it has 4 leads.
AA7 • 12 24. BEFORE connecting battery or conducting any tests, PLEASE recheck each of the pr eceding steps, looking es pecially for: • quality of solder conne ctions • correct orientation o.
AA7 • 13 rather than only a re ceive r or scanner, make sure it is not possible to transmit by accidentally pressing a mike button or CW keyer. Transmitted RF into the AA7 is likely to ruin on e o r both of the transistors.
AA7 • 14 Unusual oscillations in receiver: So me portable receivers not enclosed in metal cases may break into oscilla tion wh en conne cted to any RF preamplifier. Try reducing the AA7 gain control and make sure good grounds are on the interconnecting coax cables.
