While uncalibrated LO leakage has never been great in the UBX for us, the dc 
offset calibration procedure has given us adequate enough improvement.  We’re 
generally using offset tuning, but we still need that extra 15-20 dB 
suppression we get from the calibration procedure.

The issue we’re seeing with these newer Rev C boards, though, is that the 
calibration doesn’t just fail to improve LO suppression; it actively makes it 
worse. Offset tuning is pretty fruitless when the LO spur alone is >0 dBm at 
the mid-point of available RF gain.
