Hi
I always find that I like the sound of a station on SSB when I tune 100 Hz
off .. ie: 50.109900 instead of 50.110.
Is there an easy way to put this 100Hz offset into the powerSDR setup?

I have to disagree a bit ... an 8877 on VHF needs way more than 25W drive ...
60 Watts will do OK and could eliminate the need for an intermediate amp.

Ok Neal ... I am going to take your advice on this one. I have been looking
for new speakers for the flex ... not happy with the Logitech 2.1 system I
have. I found these same BA MM220 speakers in Canada at Tiger Direct for
CAD$35 ... we can almost never get similar deals in Canada as in the USA.
What's the big deal ...
Solution 1: Don't worry about, it's not all that bad, and when the band is
open, its open ... you may miss a few weak ones.
Solution 2: Add an external 6m Power Amp that also has a preamp.
Solution 3: Add any one of the nice external preamps to the convenient RX
