[hpsdr] A real newbie question

[n3evl]

FYI - For calibration I use the little Elecraft XG1 which puts out 50uV 
or 1uV on 7040KHz - handy for a good S9 reference.  Looks like their 
latest offering is the XG3 which seems to have more capabilities than my 
earlier unit and is more expensive but might be worth looking at.
