Compact and easy - head for the hills! Time Owned: 6 to 12 months.
Very compact and easy to use. I Mounted my station 817 transverter and 23cm amp in a flight case for portable operation. The product is stable and sensitive.

Get on 23cm with this budget solution, you won't be disappointed

Excellent product, excellent value ! Time Owned: more than 12 months.
Fantastic product and fantastic value from Hristiyan, LZ5HP in Sofia, Bulgaria !
This is by far the easiest way to get started on the microwave bands. This transverter is very well designed, comes complete ( even with basic antenna ) and is rf-sensed so no tricky cables req'd. There are more features and flexibility available via jumpers internally. Built-in power supply, rf level and VSWR metering via front panel LEDs. This about as foolproof as transverters get. Get one now !

Superb, Time Owned: more than 12 months.
A modern Hairpin filter no-tune transverter using modern devices. VERY simple to use and SG-Labs are a great company to do business with. Beautifully well made and they threw in a PCB type HB9CV aerial with the transverter. If you have an FT290 MK1 languishing in a cupboard, it will make the perfect driver for this transverter. Although I already has a Tonna 23 ele yagi, I made a brand new wood and aluminium yagi for this transverter. It's a nice piece of kit.

23cm band for EVERYBODY!!! Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
Advised by VE6MB on a eham thread. I am new to the band. This product is impressively well thought. It has all you can want, I like the easy RF-sensing for TX-RX switching and the easy way to check SWR and RF input levels. It can also be switched via PTT. Has lots of features. Great for all modes transceivers, but can also be used with FM repeaters. It has the shifts so you can even successfully use a Baofeng with it !!! Extremely well built, it arrived with PTT and power connectors and a small PCB antenna. The PCB antenna is great in the case you do not have a dummy load for testing. Every ham should have one!!!
