Hi Ray yes actually a sine wave out. So something is wrong. Are you actually using a mixer or the transformers and diodes I suggested? Including a schematic that I believe is easier to read than the original from 2015. Note that the diodes are floating and that each side actually goes to an active driver. There is always current going through the diodes. Either forward or reverse. Other possibility your over driving the flipper. I just built one up to actually create the BPSK signal. Found that it needed to stay below -8dbm otherwise it would distort. But increasing the current allowed me to go to -3dbm. Regards Paul
