Hi Chris,

many thanks for the additional information. It was absolutely not my
intention to condemn this chip. No, but you have to invest a lot of cost for
low noise VCOs etc. and also pre-selection to compete with well designed
analogue transverter concepts regarding to our ham application on the
VHF/UHF and SHF bands. IMO this 12 Bit ADC providing an ENOB around 9 is
also not enough for the high dynamic requirements on these bands at least
under contest conditions, when the bands are congested or for the EME freak,
when his neighbor are also on air, hi.
