[hpsdr] Capabilities on 630m (Mercury & Penelope)?

[n3evl]

I was surprised recently to notice that PowerSDR mRX has the 630m band 
marked as an Amateur band (red band edge markers, etc.).  I ran a quick 
TX test into a dummy load and did see my watt meter needle move ever so 
slightly.  Of course this was with Penelope driving my Munin 100W amp so 
can't be attributed to Penelope alone :)  However, I guess this 
indicates that some small amount of RF is being generated at that frequency.

What are the performance expectations of the Atlas based hardware (or 
other HPSDR-derived hardware) in terms of TX and RX for this band?  Are 
there any practical mods that can be made (to Penelope and/or Mercury in 
my specific case) to optimize support for this band?

Thanks,

Pete, N3EVL
