Answer 4—With the LO above the RF frequency, the IF frequencies are produced by subtracting the RF frequencies from the LO frequency. This means that the upper sideband on the incoming RF becomes the lower sideband in the IF, and vice versa. The switch that selects one sideband or the other must be labeled appropriately.
