comparing SDR upconverters, thermal stability

[Daniel Pocock <daniel@pocock.pro>]

Hi all,

Has anybody been using any of the upconverters for SDR and has anybody
made any comparison of them?

I've seen some comments suggesting that many of the low cost models have
poor thermal stability[1], has anybody seen problems with this in
practice for receiving modes like SSB on amateur HF bands?

If this is an issue, is anybody aware of alternative models that are
more robust?

Regards,

Daniel
