Hello Paul,

No you must calibrate each application with the true sound card speed.

I don't think you could see any difference for decoding. If the level is 
good, 8, 16 or 24 bits will give the same results (theoriticaly there is a 
difference (due to the quantification noise), but the difference is on 1/10 
or 1/100 dB order).

However, if you plan to work with SdR (and hence work with weak signals), it 
could be interesting to have a 24 bits sound card (perhaps some SdR programs 
can work with 24 bits, but I'm not sure).
