And QUIETER!!!! There is enough noise on the bands without adding it in the 
shack. No motors, relays, fans, etc.

I'm the guy who can hear the motor in a DVD player or VCR while a movie is 
playing and hates it.

Then again, if the DSP algorithms produce a lot of audio artifacts, then 
perhaps loud motors and fans will mask them. :-)
