Several people have now built versions of my 472/500kHz transverter. The latest version is shown below which includes provision for an additional low pass filter when using a fairly long (less sharply tuned) antenna. Although some capacitors could be combined to reduce the component count, I've shown it using readily available high voltage capacitors. The 16uH inductors are 43turns of 0.71mm wire on 22mm white PVC pipe.
In the last few minutes I've been looking on 472kHz WSPR and see that
SM6BHZ and
DK7FC are coming through OK despite my S8 noise floor.
