Makes sense the transverter approach. Not sure whether the ones from Ukraine could match well. But is a different approach. You need both hf and transverter. This may give some advantages? but is not very handy for sota or portable operation.

I haven't really been following all the details of the conversation, but how about a front end mixer to convert VHF to HF? You'd still need to work out something for FM but most other modes would be covered.

Hi Ken, the driving motivation here is for Single Side Band operations, with that said your totally and completely correct there is absolutely no financial benefit to building an FM only VHF circuit.?
with the 45MHz crystal filter I can see it maybe working on 4 Meters, 2 Meters, and maybe 1.25 Meters. so I could see a reasonable compromise being a dual band rig with 2 meters and the option of 4 meters or 222MHz.? for 6 meters I understand a different crystal filter would need to be employed.?
