44MHz to 50MHz frequency converter
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
If this 6MHz signal is a video signal you can consider first, demodulation to a baseband video and then modulation with 50MHz carrier ..
Other option is to mix 44MHz with 6MHz and filter out all other products (including oryginal 44MHz) except 50MHz product. Here, as the frequency is not that high, you can consider, say 5-pole (or more), active band-pass filter ..

It is a 6MHz digitally modulated video signal, therefore too expensive to demodulate and remodulate.
It will be combined with another 44MHz carrier, so filtering the 50MHz carrier will be very difficult in order to remove all the energy adjacent to it.
Use a serrodyne frequency translator to shift the frequency by 6 MHz.
Interesting. How do you suggest constructing a serrodyne frequency translator to give 6MHz shift at 44MHz?
A 5 meter wide waveguide being moved at thousands of miles per second perhaps?
Do you think if I use a 6MHz crystal and mix it to 50MHz, the adjacent channel at 44MHz will be ok.
Anyone know where I can find a 6MHz crystal module and a 50MHz bandpass filter with SMA connectors?
