Hi Matt,

Thank you for your help.
Can you point me to the board schematics to see where I should 'cut' :)


Look on the board.  You want to cut the filter out of the path, but you 
don't want to cut the main signal path.

Is there a easy way to disable it?


The filter affects both TX and RX, but not the auxiliary RX path (RX2).  
If you just want to receive, use the 2nd SMA port and make sure to set 
that in the software.  If you want to bypass the filter for transmit, 
you will need to put a cap of about 50 to 200 pF in the path, and cut 
the traces to the filter.

Hi all,

Does anybody know if the ISM filter on the RFX900 board affects both the Rx
and Tx paths or only the Rx?
Is there a easy way to disable it?

Thanks for your help!
