In a file recorded by SpectraVue (the software which came along with the SDR-IQ), with the VFO tuned to 77490 Hz, recodring DCF77 on 77500 Hz, produces a 'positive' 10 Hz baseband frequency in the I+Q wave file recorded by that software. And, as expectable for "I" ~ cos(omega*t) and "Q" ~ sin(omega*t), the phase of the signal's "I" component *leads* the "Q" component by 90 degrees. So, "all ok" with the files recorded by whatever software. Besides that, it's advisable *not* to tune the SDR exactly to the frequency of the EbNaut signal. Detune by a few Hz to avoid having the "0 Hz" component (after the downconversion, either digital or analog) inside the decoder's passband. Now back to local EbNaut testing... Have a nice sunday an a merry xmas season everyone, Wolf .
