I just installed the software and I'm running on a SDR-IQ after 45 
minutes of using it I have a few comments.

The AM modes are great I listened to some SW broadcast and also some 
AM broadcast and the results are very good, the stations sound 
fantastic and the ECSS modes are working well, it's interesting to go 
a little off frequency and watch it correct right back to the center 
of the signal.

The CPU usage is considerably smaller from 50% to about 35%

The only thing I see as a negative so far is the Noise Reduction, it 
doesn't seem to be as effective as it used to be and on weak signals 
it reduces the volume of the signals and has a hollow ringing sound 
to it that it didn't use to have. Maybe I'm experiencing poor band 
conditions but the NR does not seem as effective as it used to be, 
most of the time it would eliminate all the background noise but it's 
not doing so right now.

I will be using the software all day tomorrow so I will give it a good workout.
