3-44F4:
What are the principal frequencies that appear at the output of a mixer circuit?
The original frequencies and the sum and difference frequencies.
Two and four times the original frequency.
The sum, difference and square root of the input frequencies.
1.414 and 0.707 times the input frequency.
3-44F5:
If a receiver mixes a 13.8 MHz VFO with a 14.255 MHz receive signal to produce a 455 kHz intermediate frequency signal, what type of interference will a 13.345 MHz signal produce in the receiver?
An image response.

3-44F6:
What might occur in a receiver if excessive amounts of signal energy overdrive the mixer circuit?
Spurious mixer products are generated.
Automatic limiting occurs.
Mixer blanking occurs.
The mixer circuit becomes unstable and drifts.
