[Premium-Rx] WJ8718 STD and IF out ?

[Terry O'Laughlin]

Yes.  I've seen two versions.  The standard SMO - Spectrum Monitor Output 
which is about 30 kHz wide but at 455 kHz and designed for the 
WJ-9188-18.  The other version which I have in my current WJ-8716/MFP has a 
10.7 MHz output 100 kHz wide.  This unit has a special 100 kHz filter in 
the input mixer.  A stock WJ-8718 only has 30 kHz available at the 10.7 MHz 
output of the first mixer because of the stock 30 kHz filter.  I have 
documentation on the 455 kHz SMO option, but not the second.
