I assembled the Iceni 70cm transverter kit from G4DDK. Instead of the ADE-13 i used a ADE-751MH+. Sam was so kind and sponsored one of his mixer samples he used for testing. Unfortunately the manufacturer of the mixers uses different pinouts for almost every type. In this case i had to swap RF and IP ports. The good one: It is not difficult with the layout. In the picture you can see the short semirigid.

G4DDK Iceni transverter for 70cm<\/p><\/div>
\nThe next picture shows some IM3 measurement for the RX part of the transverter. The estimated input IM3 point is around 0dBm now (21dB gain).
\nThe P1dB is about -9dBm (2x -12dBm).

\nI also checked the output signal. The 2nd harmonic is about 53dB below wanted signal and the LO suppression is about 58dB. So some extra filter might be required to the comply with regulations.
\nOverall i am very satisfied with this transverter block. With the alternative mixer the performance is even better than it was before.
\nNext i need to add a amplifier and other unimportant things like sequencer, RX\/TX-switch, chassis and so on ;)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
