Yes, and that was what I wanted to know. I've read in this mailing list that the DSP limits the audio at 4 kHz. I'm seeing it roll off at little above 3400. The low end rolls off at around 300, so I'm getting an audio passband of ~3100 Hz. I wonder if this is normal, or if there's something else I can tweak in the settings.
It depends on your "roofing" filter ... If you have an AM (6 KHz) or FM (13 KHz) filter, you will see 300 Hz to 4200 Hz with FC=2.20 and BW=4.00 (at -3dB). If you only have a 2.8 KHz filter, bandwidth will be around 2800 Hz (900 - 3700 with FC=2.20 and BW=4.00 or 400 - 3200 with FC=1.60 and BW=4.00). If you see roll-off at 3400 Hz you either have a narrow roofing filter or the DSP center frequency (FC) is set too low. 73, ... Joe, W4TV On 8/23/2015 3:51 PM, Pierfrancesco Caci wrote:

Hi Matt, actually, I'm seeing JT9 stations transmitting at 3400 Hz, and who knows if there are some even above that. JT65+JT9 uses quite a wide receive window.
