I see lots of nice new toys, Alberto. The AM sounds good.

After a little rest, could you think about the following:

(1) with SDR-IQ wav files, there's no way to know what frequency is 
where in the display. That can be quite a mess when the recording is 
full of stations on both 9 and 10 kHz plans. This could be fixed by 
reading the center frequency (bytes 32, 33, and 34) (LSB to MSB 
respectively) from the auxi chunk of the wav file and using it 
to "grid" the display every 5 or 10 kHz.

(2) The ECSS is quite often not usable for me when the desired 
carrier is weak and close to a strong carrier. The ECSS seems to 
lock onto the strong carrier as if it is still in the capture range. 
I found it almost impossible to get ECSS tuned to 1089 (in LSB mode) 
with a strong station on 1090, even thugh the 1089 station was 
strong enough to produce usable audio in plain LSB mode.

P.S. I promised you some Matlab files for a Costas loop. I haven't 
forgotten.
