Francesco Gugliuzza f.gugliuzza at hacklabproject.orgIf the tuner output impedance is known, you could use a balun transformer of the right type to convert the signal, and get total galvanic isolation as an extra. Also, you need a good lowpass filter because the audio cards sample at 44100 or 48000 Hz and the lowest tuner output bandwidth is surely > 1 MHz. 2013/6/12 Leif Asbrink <leif at sm5bsz.com> > Hello Zilvinas, > > This should work very well:-) > > The IQ signals are balanced and the proper > procedure would be to use a differential > amplifier to convert the voltage difference > between I+ and I- to a voltage difference between > the ground reference and the input of the soundcard. > > You can try just putting a wire from I+ to > the soundcard input.
