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.
