Agile frequency converter and method, IF-RF level exchange process, and notch filtering techniques. System noise and spurious levels generated by channel frequency conversion is reduced in applications requiring broadband combining of frequency converters to form multichannel composite signal. Converter employs two-stage frequency conversion process, with gain exchange system using variable pre-mixer gain and variable post-mixer attenuation to maintain constant RF output signal power level. For those few conversion frequencies where distortion component(s) cannot be filtered without degrading desired signal, IF-RF level exchange is optimized for meeting the carrier-to-distortion (C/D) ratio specifications at slight expense of noise level for that channel only, while still meeting aggregate combined carrier-to-noise (C/N) specification requirements. Optimal apportionment of level exchange for each channel depends on specific frequency rejection capability of spurious components and is matched to filtering capability and stored within non-volatile memory of a microcontroller used in the frequency converter.

A sulfoalkyl ether-alkyl ether cyclodextrin (SAE-AE-CD) derivative is provided. The SAE-AE-CD possesses advantages over known SAE-CD and AE-CD derivatives as well as over the parent cyclodextrin by being more water soluble and less membrane disturbing. The SAE-AE-CD includes at least one sulfoalkyl ether group and at least one alkyl ether group even though the degree of substitution for the functional groups can be different. The SAE functional group can be present in molar excess over the AE functional group and vice versa.

In addition, SAE-AE-CD can also be used for other purposes such as osmotic agents, agents used to mask the taste of problematic drugs. Surprisingly, while AE-CDs are known to be toxic by being membrane disturbing, SAE-AE-CDs are less membrane disturbing and therefore have greater safety.
