Apples to Oranges comparison, but the dynamic range seems much improved at 24 bit resolution, especially since I could turn the AGC off on
the FT-817 and the only option with the FT-847 was AGC fast....

Eventually I will build up another audio interface for my second FT-817 and do another comparison test with two FT-817s...

I see XIL went QRT around 1408 UTC but I can leave the receivers & PCs running all day if Warren wants additional signal data...
