I think this means also that some band pass filtering will be needed on the transmit side (harmonics/spurs -43 dB down), and would also be desirable on the receive side. - Dan From: minima-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:minima-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of ext Dan Reynolds Sent: Monday, March 03, 2014 12:38 PM To: minima@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [minima] Re: KISS Mixer Musings Mark, THANKS!! That's what I assumed but there was so much conversation and I was trying to be a good student and understand what was going on. Hee, hee! :-) Sometimes it's just good to be dumb!
