- MIC- USE CRYSTAL MICROPHONE OR ELECTRET UNIT (CONNECT RED LEAD TO 9V)

	
* - TRANSISTOR - USE A 2N2222 NPN TRANSISTOR.

	
** - LED - USE A HIGH-BRIGHTNESS RED OR HIGH POWERED INFRARED LED FOR BEST


            RESULTS
_______________________________________________________________________________

THE 741 AMPLIFIES VOICE SIGNALS FROM THE MICROPHONE AND COUPLES THEM THROUGH C2
TO MODULATOR TRANSISTOR Q1.  FOR A FREE-SPACE RANGE OF UP TO 1000 FEET
(AT NIGHT), USE A LENS TO COLLIMATE THE LED BEAM OR USE THIS CIRCUIT AS
AN OPTICAL FIBER TRANSMITTER.

--- OP AMP --- THIS MAY NOT LOOK LIKE AN OP-AMP BUT IT IS  (VERY HARD TO


                 DRAW THEM ON THE COMPUTER.  USE A 386 OP AMP FOR THIS ONE
_______________________________________________________________________________

THIS RECEIVER WORKS BEST IN SUBDUED LIGHT OR AT NIGHT WHEN USED FOR
FREE-SPACE COMMUNICATIONS ALWAYS PLACE A SHIELD OVER THE DETECTOR IF SUNLIGHT
OR BRIGHT ARTIFICIAL LIGHT IS PRESENT.  AN INFRARED FILTER SHOULD BE USED
FOR BEST RESULTS (DEVELOPED COLOR FILM WORKS WELL) UNLESS THE TRANSMITER
LED EMITS VISIBLE LIGHT.

CAUTION : THIS CIRCUIT CAN PRODUCE LOUD SOUNDS. DO NOT PLACE SPEAKER CLOSE
TO YOUR EAR.
