Yes Doc - if you build one, I can supply the crystals...

I have occasionallyu thought it would be fn  to build such 
a transverter. Probably one of the easier homebrew projects.
Certainly easier than making a complete all-mode transceiver!

You could use something lik e a 7 MHz i.f. and that would work 
with a 5.2 MHz crystal.  I wonder what the QST article called for?
