What device converts the RF input and output of a transceiver to another band?

A transverter.

  1. High-pass filter
  2. Transverter ✔
  3. Phase converter

Why: A transverter shifts both the transmit and receive signals of a radio to a different band, so one radio can work bands it was not built for.

Huh, didn't know that: A transceiver is a single device that combines a receiver and a transmitter.

The dad joke
Why did the transverter love to travel? It could always find a new band to join.
