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 .
