Willi,
The issue you refer to is an inherited problem of the PowerSDR software as
it is today due to the DttSP library and the linear method of IQ calibration
the DttSP uses..
It is not solved by as you easily think by storing an infinite number or
settings. Even if you do that you cannot have

This is probably all a tangent, but...
From my viewpoint, as a professional software engineer who finds the PowerSDR
design and development process both frustrating and unfriendly, it captures
the Flex experience

I think that the cards are shuffled more than needed.
I am very satisfied with my sdr1k box and its performance.
Image rejection is the holy grail of any DC tranceiver.
I am not interested in automatic image calibration since it always gave
me poor results.
I am also not interested in exotic

While it is useful to consider software development as a general
concept, such a discussion is a lot more involved than the
fascinating web article at mpt.net.nz considers.
Let me make an analogy with my profession: Diagnostic Radiology
(although I practice a subpart, Interventional Radiology).
I think Flex would benefit from additional full-time
devs and an experienced full-time software development manager or architect.

You can always have multiple copies of PowerSDR on your computer. Dedicate a
copy per band with the optimal image rejection settings for that band.
Band changing will not be as easy but at least you'll have the settings you
desire.
Just a thought until something better comes along.

Too bad FlexRadio can't figure out how to come out with a 200 watt radio
instead of making those little dinky improvements.
