For those of you who own the new Intel Mac computers..
I have been able to install XP on my intel iMac 20 inch and run the SDR-1000
just fine. If you have reduced your fan noise on the SDR running it with the
already out of the box silent iMac is a treat.
You can ONLY install XP on the new intel Macs...

I was tuning around the 80 meter cw band tonight and heard a broadcast
station on 3545 kHz. I was using a 40/80 m trap dipole for an antenna.
I checked the frequency on my Kenwood TS-450 and could not hear the
broadcast station. I suspected that it was an inter modulation product
from two strong stations impinging on the front end of the SDR-1000. We
have only one strong AM station here on 1490 kHz, so I tuned to it and
confirmed the programming as part of the inter mod. I then took several
try's at the N*f1 +/- M*f2 formula and discovered a strong station at
5035 kHz (5035 - 1490 = 3545). I confirmed the 5035 station from its
programming, also. This inter mod was present with all settings of the
pre amp and with the pre amp off. When I placed my antenna tuner in
line, the inter mod went away. My question is this: With such a strong
front end in the SDR-1000, how is this happening?
