So, I guess what you want to do is receive this stuff to I+Q and then
look at the eye diagram.  Smearing of the constellation means you have
a lot of nastiness going on.  Same as any other complex modulation.

Guess it's just down to a software problem then with an app for use with
one of those FunCube dongles (or equiv)  ;-)

Looks like the "MSI 4400 8VSB Analyzer" shown in the presentation is a
software package they are selling that pretty much does this analysis.
