Thanks for the feedback, Geoff! I can see, intuitively, an advantage of doing the switching in the more predictable environment of the L.O. chain instead of the signal path with who-knows-what coming along the bandpass and feeding relatively high-gain amplifiers after it! Especially when you're already providing a switching square wave as the L.O. signal itself.
It reinforces my long-standing belief that mixers produce bizarre environments, electrically, not much unlike what Alice found down the rabbit hole!
