probably not HARD amplitude limited. sign bit would still rule though...

but band limited of course. and if in linear mode, AGCed so there would 
be a reasonably consistent level there, FM or SSB probably 10-16dB max 
dynamic range. (guess)


still worthwhile doign your numbers to see where all the sampling 
products land, and also, where the aliases of the harmonics present on 
the fitler output (non zero) and 2f of the created ADC distortion land. 
the 2f and 3f can get very bad with under specified sample AND holds  
when operating super nyquist.

Glen - would the FM be limited by that stage?  That would mean a 
simple ADC would suffice, we're just looking for the sign bit.

Hi all,

A small update: the dra818 module is a bit dissapointing. The worst 
problem: it takes almost a second before it modulates after switching 
to TX.

So I went for a different approach:

A while back I modified my FT817 a bit to make the 455kHz IF available 
on the back. This is done by using the c
