coffee. <br>
So if you record to disk I would think that if you captured a
portion of the spectrum with many stations that the file size
would be greater than a less busy part of the spectrum. Is that
true? Then I thought if you recorded a part of the spectrum with
noise at a certain level and then recorded another part of the
spectrum with a higher noise level, then would the 2 files sizes
be the same or different? I'm ignoring OS overhead.<br>
I'm sure there is a mathematical explanation for this and if need
be I WILL drink more coffee...<br>

1/2: BooyaSDR <br>
The first two are BooyaSDR units. These are different than
almost all other SDRs available to RF enthusiasts at the moment,
in that they sample the RF input directly, then send ALL those
samples to the host computer. No FPGA or other device to reduce
the amount of samples. The host computer then does all the
computations to show the FULL bandwidth of their respective
input. The software shows this spectrum display in a series of
waterfalls stacked on top of each other. I purchased one of the
100MHz full SDR & antenna, and then a 16MHz digitizer set,
less antenna. I also have a 64MHz oscillator that I can put in
place of the socketed 100MHz oscillator, so I can test the
boards at that lower rate. <br>
