David, The 1N4007 die is much larger and more rugged than the ordinary silicon diode die of the 1N4148. It has been shown to work in other RF switching circuits, and they are very low cost, since the

You can probably get a few for that much at your local RS. But on line they won't guarantee what their package of 25 for $2.79 contains. 1N4007 are 25/$1 at http://www.danssmallpartsandkits.net/ who

I think there is only upside. The 1N4007 is a better RF switch than the 1N4148, but not as good as a diode made to be a PIN diode. The 1N4007 has an intrinsic region to give it better high voltage pe

Well, you could build a "swamping pad", a resistive attenuator with a dummy load. Run the Corsair at full power but set up the resistor values so that 95% of the power goes into the dummy load and 5%

There will greater intermod both receive and transmit with the 1N4007 over the true PIN diode, and more than that with the 1N4148. I know I've seen an article on the topic, probably in VHF Communicat

But on receive they see the whole RF bandwidth, at least 5 or 6 MHz, and on transmit they see all the components of the transmitted SSB signal. In either case they can contribute intermod products, w

A sturdier way to plug in the experimental diodes is to solder them to a segment of a DIP or SIP header that can plug into the socket segment that gets mounted to the transverter board. Since this is
