Hi Marek & LF,
I have had a look at the sites you noted below & I am amazed at the
frequency range recorded on the spectogram shown on the second address. I
don't think that it is quite off topic but is certainly very impressive,
somethink to look into & I beleive will be of interest to some of us on
here. Unfortunately the language is a problem for me so really the
spectogram site was the one that I understood.
Regards
Gary - G4WGT.

Subject: LF: Slightly off-topic: 878a as an 896kHz ADC for a software
defined radio
Hi all,
Maybe someone's interested, I just found this experiment at
http://www.domenech.org/ . In short, the author uses a TV capture card with
a Conexant Fusion 878A chip as a fast Analog to Digital Converter (16-bit /
896kHz!). Then he _directly_ connects an antenna to the input - see the
result at http://www.domenech.org/homebrew-sdr/spectrogram-lf.htm . Not
everything is translated to English, anyway - have fun. I'd love to
experiment with this but... unfortunately my TV card uses some other chip,
so I am now starting to look for some bargain at on-line auctions hi
