It makes the blanket statement that single conversion radios will be excluded because "Double Conversion is necessary to reduce images." The mere presence of double conversion circuitry does not guaranty a reduction in images in my experience. This can be seen in the DE1103 which has serious problems with images from strong signals at twice the IF (900 khz) down. And the DE1103 was included as one of the final five at least in part because of it's purported resistance to images. I assume the DE1102 has similar image problems, but don't know for sure. And of course, single conversion doesn't mean much in itself, since it doesn't describe the design of a receiver. A single conversion to 455KHz likely means bad image rejection at the higher frequencies, but such a general statement overlooks receivers with good front end selectivity that compensates for the low IF. And of course, one can do a single conversion to a frequency in the HF range, and image rejection will be pretty good. Michael |
