Also check out this link, good info on the 7360 as a mixer.

Seems the 7360 performance is poor with IF's above 1mhz.


The writer's an idiot. The 7360 is good to over 50 MHz IF!

Bob

What he claimed was that the conversion gain dropped to unity above
that frequency. That doesn't mean it isn't a good mixer at 50mhz.
Diode ring mixers have a unity (or LESS!) conversion gain, yet they
are very good mixers.
