I see that the "60" allows for adjusting the sof mute and 7 band widths.

Yes, there are some spec improvements for FM Stereo, and some smaller improvements to S/N. These were always there with software programming with caveats about distortion. The baseline specs for RX sensitivity on all bands seems the same. For some reason, I also notice that the 47xx series is now claiming 150 to 279 kHz Long wave. I don't see the near full coverage 150 to 1700 kHz.

There are no specification changes to the chip, and it suggests a modification of coding and options. > > > > > > > > > > Paul S. in CT > > > > > > > > > > |
