I decided I don't need linear modes and wanted more RF output so I 
took it a step further. Sorry about the rough hand drawn schematic. 
I'm too busy building to be bothered fighting with software to draw 
it nice. ;-)

I have a similar converter for 2200m which uses the same mixer to 
keep cost down.
