There's so much Marcus in here ;) so here's my answer: usually, you'd
use the USRP+WBX as direct conversion receiver, not an IF one.

Regarding WBX documentation: have you seen the performance measurements
[1], and the UHD manual [2]?

Is there some specific information you're missing?

Best regards,
Marcus

PS: if you'd agree, I'd like to shift this discussion to
usrp-us...@lists.ettus.com .
