If the RTL-SDR can be controlled with HDSDR, then everything I told you is still correct.

My thanks to Barry, Bob, and Carl for helping me sort out the panadaptor
options for my Orion. I finally got some radials down yesterday for the new
vertical so we are getting closer to getting back on the air and needing the
panadaptor. I plan to pull the covers off the Orion and check the backup
battery and the A9 board caps before firing it up again after a 2-year
hiatus.

BTW, I made a mistake when I said I have an SDR-Play. What I actually have
is an RTL-SDR, I don't know if this make a lot of difference but this at
least corrects the error.

Thanks again and 73, Mike W2IY

The IF output choice is bandwidth limited
while the RF output from the Low Pass Filter is band limited.


Screenshot from a several years back using VE7TK IF output mod on Orion and
LP-PAN:  shorturl.at/swMQR
Screenshot from a several years back using similar IF output mod on Omni6
and RSP-1: shorturl.at/aes37  and  shorturl.at/eqxES

Just sharing these to give an idea on what kind of bandwidth you might
expect using this method.
