The Anan SDR folks are doing this using an external coupler feeding one of the 
receivers in the Anan. Google “Pure Signal”, which is their name for the 
implementation.  I think it’s a VK who is doing the firmware. There are a few 
YouTube videos showing the end result, and it is really impressive.  The basic 
concept is pretty simple, but as always the devil is in the details. Way above 
my pay grade :^)

Ken:

How would one implement this.  I know that the real weak spot amongst the high 
power solid state amps available to the Amateur community has been high IMD, 
due to what I understand are limits to the existing DMOS chips.

The Elecraft folks should be in charge of government secrets… nothing would 
ever leak  :^)

One interesting item in the rear panel photo: Tx Sample.  Output for “Pure 
Signal” style IMD improvement using pre-distortion in an SDR radio?
