[soft_radio] 12KHz IF vs Baseband Complex (I/Q)

[cocokcocok]

Hi,

What would be the advantage of having baseband complex I/Q signal feed
to sound card instead of having direct 12KHz IF signals which can be
digitally splitted to I/Q signals for further processing.  
TenTec and Winradio with their old models using the later approach as
far as I know.

Regards,
