Maybe, but that's starting to increase the complexity. I've used
various and sundry harmonic mixers using SRDs (aka Sampling Phase
Detectors) The SRD has very fast transition times, so getting well up
into microwave is easy.
For my application, I'm happy down at 15 MHz, and a reasonably fast rise
time on a 1 microsecond pulse does it quite nicely.
