NOT ELECRAFT - PA3AKE H-MODE MIXER MEASUREMENT UPDATE

I7SWX
Hi all,

I like to inform you that Martein Bakker, PA3AKE, has
updated his web page reporting his measurement on the
H-Mode Mixer. The update is relative to measurement
done on the I7SWX 2T H-Mode Mixer using the FSA3157
and the original 2T version with Pericom PI5C3125 fast
bus switch.

A major comment reported by Martein on the 2T HMM
version with FSA3157 is:

“2 transformer version is an interesting branch in
H-Mode mixer development. Most impressive is the spur
reduction possible with home made transformers with
this configuration in combination with the FSA3157
switches.”

PA3AKE web page is:
http://www.xs4all.nl/~martein/pa3ake/hmode/

Below is reported the Contents list of all
measurements done and comments reported by Martein. I
am sure all those that have visited and will visit his
page will find one of the most complete reports done
on the important H-Mode Mixer developed by Colin
Horrabine, G3SBI.

73 and enjoy the reading
