Hi thank you for your comment.

What do you think about the following thought:

I take two old radioscanners each  has 12.5 kHz channel pattern
("Kanalraster") , Tetra uses 25 kHz.
Then I make for each scanner a FM modulation in Software or on FPGA and
after a signal addition. Now i should have the modulated Pi/4-DQPSK signal
back. Or haven’t I?
