Audio/Video to UHF TV Signal Converter (Modulator)

Audio/Video to UHF TV Signal Converter (Modulator) circuit

This is the circuit diagram of audio/video modulator. The circuit will convert an audio and video signal into a UHF TV signal. It’s desired to connect a video signal originating from a camera or other video source to a normal TV set. The audio and video signal is converted into a UHF TV signal so that the signal can be received through the TV antenna input.

High Frequency Inductor Windings
This is how to make high frequency inductors for L1, L2 and L3:

  • Cut 3 lengths of the 0.6mm wire supplied to the exact length.
  • Scrape the enamel off the ends of each length of wire with a sharp knife for about 5 mm and tin the ends.
  • Make up the windings on a gimlet of 3.5mm diameter.

    Hi,
    I have two questions
    1- what about the voltage?
    2- there is “L5 : 10μH” in the parts list but i can’t find it in the schematic!
    Thank you
