Richard,

I'm afraid this is incorrect. If you use only one of the channels and run a
real to real FFT on it you will see a mirrored spectrum. The negative
spectrum will be an exact mirror of the positive one. In order to see
negative and positive frequencies you will need both audio channels (I and
Q) and run a complex FFT.
