I sent him this. I think it looks very good, and shows that it is possible to use an IF this high. This permits us to not only set up the transceiver for dual band coverage (in this case 15 and 10 meters), but it also allows for a lower frequency VFO (in this case around 3.5 MHz) with a resulting increase in VFO stability. <\/b><\/div>\n<p><b><br \/><\/b><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here are a couple of videos on Version 2 of my 15-10 SSB transceiver.
