Re: Irwell Mixer Stage
Hi Rahul
Look at Item 17 in the Solid State Circuits section of my technical web site for the formulae for a diplexer. You just need to decide on the Q that is required.

Re: Irwell Mixer Stage
You could used SMD inductors but beware the Q value and tolerance could be an issue.
If you stick to using the T37 cores the Q value will be fine and providing you have the means to measure the
