I can vouch for this design. I have one that Jeff built and it works flawlessly with my 910 and SATPC32.

Or build one of  these in this very informative guide......

I build the 3 transistor ct-17 clone  years ago and  I can get it to fit 
into a DB-9 shell  built with off the shelf Radio Shack components, squashed
