This page links to articles and descriptions of techniques for the 47 GHz amateur
radio frequency band. The U.S. 47 GHz (6 millimeter) band limits are from 47.000
to 47.200 GHz, a bandwidth of just 200 MHz.
47 GHz Waveguide Harmonic Mixers. A set of slides describing
Colorado amateur's experiments with improved harmonic mixers. Use of hobby tubing
as waveguide suppresses the 23.5 GHz driving frequency. Results to date include
ssb contacts out to 18.3 miles. The diodes used were salvaged from scrap Qualcomm
modules. Slides by Don Nelson, N0UGY with Bill McCaa, K0RZ and Phil Lee, W6HCC.
