I'd love to hear some A/B audio samples of nitPic if they become available. It operates at AF? Operates well in congested bands?
I've always been told that by the time the signal is demodulated to AF the damage is done. Why I believe this I have no clue. So when I hear something about noise reduction or filtering on AF it always makes me think of howling CW and scratchy voice. The best filter I used at audio was the old Autek QF-1A. Boy could I get that howling! I think I need to catch up and learn new old ham tales. 73, Kev K4VD On Wed, Aug 23, 2017 at 1:24 PM, P.J.Hicks <[email protected]> wrote: > I have been involved with a project developed by Peter Rhodes of the UK > that started as a way to improve the NR in his Pick a Star trx.
