It is very true that one can encounter many kinds of noise on the various bands, but for the most part what I am trying to eliminate, or at least reduce, is the background hiss to bring out the signal from the noise. The hiss is relatively constant and can be lowered by using some kind of sampling and subtraction algorithm. The BHI does this successfully and can make weak signals much more readable. I would think that this should be achievable in the PowerSDR software as well with a little bit of further refining.

I for one have no intention of fiddling with every signal I encounter setting taps and leakage, delay, etc. I work mostly weak signal VHF and UHF and as you know, signals can come and go very quickly depending on the changing propagation conditions. There is really not time to be adjusting this and that to tune in a signal.

My bottom line is, if BHI have been relatively successful in this regard, then the Flex should be able to do likewise, especially so, considering all the other wonderful things they have done in software defined radio.

I just had a very strange thought. Do you suppose that if there was one "optimum" setting for all the processing controls it would still be necessary to have the full console graphic user interface? I would think we could do away with all of that adjustment business and just tune frequency and mode to our hearts content!

I must be wasting a lot of time changing control values trying to, and often successfully at that, optimize signals under different circumstances.
