Hi Walter,
Thanks for the info, I'll add the correct filters for LSB.
I'm not using it for Taurus-1, this is still experimental and not ready to be 
deployed on anything serious. For LEO sattelite usage on FreeDV, I need to add 
Doppler tracking like I have for the other modes.

This is a standalone GUI built on GNU radio and Qt for my own purposes and not 
included on any live CD called qradiolink. I  test it primarily on the PlutoSDR 
which is VHF and above, the RTL-SDR and the LimeSDR mini. Other devices might 
work with it as well, like the USRP which I don't test on anymore since it 
always works no matter what stupid things I do with it. I'm not much of an HF 
user but it should work there with the right hardware.

Regards,
Adrian
