 Ok, guess what! I changed the channels behind the SDR and I still
have to put the delay tag on on the right channel, so the problem
stays still. The image rejection changes a little bit. The frequency
itself and image of course swapped their places.

Here's pictures:

I swapped the channels and took this.

 Then I swapped them back and took this. I had to touch a little to
the amplitude and phase sliders to get a goot rejection, but just a
little and the main thing, the delay tag stayed in the right channel
and made it worse if I put it on the left channel and tried to find
attenuation.

 I kinda did the calibration some time ago... Maybe I can move the
calibration file and then continue? BTW I also have linux on my
computer (double boot: Ubuntu physically on a other HD), but E-MU
doesn't provide any information for linux ppl so they could make
drivers :( So, I can't use it on linux. I checked linrad SSB section
and the image attenuation seems to be pretty good at the first sight.
