Hi there!
I'm new here and, to be honest, a bit out of touch with circuit building- about 10 years out of touch.
To that end i am wanting some help (a simple circuit diagram or instructions should suffice) with a project i am building.
I need to design a circuit that will apply a delay to an RF signal. This delay could be variable but this is not essential, but the ideal delay required would be 30 seconds. The circuit needs to maintain the input signal quality as much as possible, or self-compensate for any loss created, as this will be used in proffesional video applications. The idea in practice will be that i can externally split an RF feed and run one half through this device, with the output signal constantly (and uninterupted) 30 seconds behind the untouched feed.
I believe the circuit will be a fairly simple one, and possible based around the 555 timer? As i say, i am a little out of touch and might be over-complicating things or even over-simplifying them!
Hope this makes sense, and look forward to hearing any advice and suggestions.
Cheers
