Yes, I now think the 14 khz IF in the Orion would be fine. I experimented
with the RX340 and found I could move 3 khz either side and Dream would
still decode. The Dream decoder displayed a frequency of 15 khz instead of
12 khz when I moved 3 khz down. So I now think the Orion 14 khz IF for the
sub-receiver would work fine for DRM.
