Tayloe-Style Upconverting RF Mixer Transmitter Demonstration

- This video shows a breadboard demonstration of using a Tayloe RF mixer to upconvert IQ data and transmit a radio signal to a receiver. It builds on two videos I made about Tayloe mixers and radio receivers.
Note: Would be a good idea to add a simple low-pass filter to the transmitter output. See this video: • Add a Low-Pass Filter ...

Nice explanation and interesting examples, thank you for sharing your knowledge and greetings from Germany, 73 de DL8CY
Thank you. It's great to hear from someone in Germany.
Excellenet presentation/video. Thank you. I gotta think about this. I hate winding coils but I might need to for the filters.
I agree that winding toroids would be the best way to get and tune inductors for RF filters. I suppose it would be interesting to see how well a breadboard RF filters could work at low frequencies like 1 MHz. One could compare its response to what a filter designer web site predicts. I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
Great companion video to your earlier coverage of the down converter / receiver circuit! Thanks for sharing this information in such an approachable manner. Is there any chance you have a GitHub location with the schematic or Lspice file? Thanks again for this really outstanding content.
Glad you enjoyed it and good idea. I created repo called grug_misc_projects on github under user grughuhler. Let's see if CZcams lets me post a link.

Thank you so much for uploading those files. I am working on an order to Digikey so I can attempt to recreate what you demonstrated. Would you please confirm the values of R11-R14 and C6-C9? The schematic says {R} and {C}. Thank you again for providing this content.
Yes, my mistake. I deleted the LTSpice parameter without adding a note. C=10nF and R=220 Ohms. Those values are interesting to play with. I am unsure how to best select them. I'll fix the picture on the github later.
