Details the construction of an **HF converter** designed by M1GEO, George Smart, specifically to extend the frequency range of the FunCube Dongle Pro (FCD) for amateur radio reception. The FCD natively covers 64 to 1,700 MHz, but this project enables reception from 0 Hz to 64 MHz by up-converting signals to the FCD's operational range. It employs a **double-balanced mixer** with a 100 MHz local oscillator (LO) to translate incoming HF signals; for instance, a 1 MHz signal appears at 101 MHz within the FCD's passband. The design incorporates a 7th-order Chebyshev low-pass filter with a 62 MHz cutoff frequency at the input to mitigate image frequencies, ensuring cleaner spectral presentation. George provides the schematic, PCB masks, and Gerber files for replication, noting that Far Circuits also offers PCBs. The resource includes test results for the low-pass filter and measurements of LO leakage, identifying -36.8 dBm at 100 MHz as a potential sensitivity concern. M1GEO discusses potential improvements, such as adjusting the mixer's LO drive, adding a balance pot, or incorporating a post-mixer high-pass filter to reduce LO breakthrough. Audio recordings from 40m and 17m demonstrate the converter's performance with WRplus SDR software.
