[ARC5] "ARC-5" Receivers and "Q" multipliers

[Chris Kepus]

Can't resist mentioning the performance that came from a Q multiplier I
threw together for my BC-453 which was being used as a Q-5'er for an RBM
receiver.  It was an incredible combination on 40 and 20 CW which was my
primary operating freq/mode back in the early 70's.  Both the mixer module
(converting the RBM IF to roughly 400 Khz) and the Q multipler module were
built with FETs as the active device.
I still have it and this conversation has inspired me to  dig it out to find
out if it still works!  Sorry that the RBM isn't still around so a BC-348
will have to do. :-)
