    I was going to say that $235 was a lot of money for such a simple device, but having looked at the block diagram it is evident that the designers have taken a lot of trouble to keep unwanted signals at bay, even filtering the local oscillator to stop any chance of harmonic mixing. They have even taken care to keep the ring mixer happy by fitting a diplexer. A pretty nifty design, I’d say.
