HiI have little experience in demodulation of the signals but I did do SSB and AM at one time. Basically once you have the samples in the fre1uency domain you will want to apply a bandpass filters and shift it down to baseband, do an inverse fft and then a Hilbert transform to demodulate the SSB signal.Again you best bet is the free online book I mention.73 Tom

But this would be in the frequency domain then, however I am not interested in a band plot, I have a signal at Freq X, with the KX3 tuned at Y, (X=Y), would I have to still pump that IQ data into the FFT to filter all the other signals out, then inverse teh FFT to get the IQ data that I would want?

Then plot them. There's a few more nuances but that's the overall idea. Check out the free book on the Internet called the scientists guide to digital signal processing.73 Tom va2fsq.com Sent from my Samsung Galaxy smartphone. -------- Original message --------From: Enzo Adrian-Reyes <[email protected]> Date: 2016-07-27 7:16 PM (GMT-05:00) To: Elecraft List <[email protected]> Subject: [Elecraft] KX3 SDR Hi All Yes this topic might be a little bit more complicated than the title suggest. So I have the KX3 plugged into the audio input of my computer, and its sending quadrature data (IQ) to the sound card, the sound card samples at 96Khz. So my question is how I process this? Yes I know use a piece of software, but I am trying to write this, I know the IQ data is coming through down and if I use the right process on the IQ data I get base band data out. I kind of know that however I dont understand the SDR data coming out, so for example and I getting sample of IQ data at freq point Y, or is it a circular buffer arrangement. I guess what I am saying is, is the IQ data coming from teh KX3 data from teh Centre Freq (+/-) the bandwith scope, or just the centre freq + some additional side bands? How are bandwith and sampling rate related? I mean if I am sampling at at 96Khz, with a band with of 48Khz does that mean I am only getting 2 samples per second at perticular freq??? Or am I getting the entire band of 48Khz at 96Khz.
