Whilst your corrected measurements for the 10534 and 10514 are now within about 10% of those found by NIST for one of their mixers, the discrepancy with Minicircuits estimates for the RPD-1s is somewhat larger but their phase detector gain specs seem incompatible with their max output specs.

The noise of their phase detector output preamp is surprisingly high (maybe this is relatively unimportant as they use the cross power spectrum technique to measure phase noise?? ), even my crude single NJFET input stage preamplifier breadboard is about 3dB quieter.

There was a factor of two "oops" in the math. All the numbers are 2X reality.
