Bits is not the issue with interfaces for digital modes -- encode/decode
uses the 48 kHz 16 bit stream, and K1JT says that's plenty good enough.
What matters is the quality of the A/D and the analog electronics, and
that's where the Signalink falls down. Higher bit rates and depths DO
matter when using an interface for a spectrum display. N8LP has long
recommended the ASUS Xonar U5 and U7 for use with his LP-Pan, although
I've heard of hardware failures with the U7.

And.... isn't it the case that the SignaLink is a 16 bit device? That Tascam
US 100 is also 16 bits, but it has been replaced by a model that has 24 bit/96
KHz sampling.. indicating a high quality interface.
