4 m transverter

With the excellent designs of Serge, UT5JCW ( http://transverters-store.com/ ) I completed a 4m transverter:



The unit operates between 70 ... 72 MHz with IF (from my FT-450) between 28 ... 30 MHz. 

RF output power is appr. 10 Watts.


Although, I do not see much activity on the 4 m band, I spotted some stations operating in MSK144 on 70.175 MHz. Maybe that is something to focus on coming days.
