Bob,

   yes, right, but which DSP core of today is able to filter (before
decimation) at 100 MHz sampling rate ? May be my knowledge of what
hardware is available is a bit obsolete, but, AFAIK, that is beyond
the capabilities of today's DSP hardware.
And in any case 70 dB (70 or 74 ?) of dynamic range aren't enough to
classify an Rx as not even near to the state of the art...
