One could probably write a program that can tune to a known signal and then test through a range of sample rates to determine which ones generate a data stream that when treated at the expected sample rate gives the expected signal

Well, we don't really know exactly what rates are supported by the
hardware or not since there isn't exactly good documentation on it ...
and the lib will just pass that to the hardware as long as the range
fits into the "registers". This way users can  experiment ...

But if you want reliable operation you should stick to "known" working
samples rates like 250k 1M 1.024M 2M 2.048M 2.4M
