[Elecraft] Transverter with Common IF

[Dave Mueller]

DEMI has a zipped PowerPoint presentation entitled "Interfacing Transverters with the Elecraft K2 Transceiver".

I don't have a PP viewer installed to look at it, so I'm not sure if this is a "better" solution than tying the TX and RX paths together in the K2.

>I am trying to use my K2/100 (K60XV transverter interface installed) with a Down East Microwave 900mhz transverter which has only a "common" IF (not a TX IF and RX IF).  The transverter requires low power IF around 0.10 miliwatts.  (Transmitting has been tested and works fine)
>   
>  The problem is that the DEMI transverter has a common IF and the K2 has seperate TX and RX IFs.  I phoned Elecraft today and they suggested trying to modify the transverter to pull the RX IF seperately.
>   
>  Anyone have any other solutions or ideas?
