to
achieve
a

within
0.3dB
of

Even
with
less
than

the
SCA

is
much
more
rigorously
guarded
from
interference
from
the

(Card

replaces
the
safety

in
the
OPT MOD-FM

with
a
pair
of
overshoot-compensated,
low-pass
filters
in
order
to
significantly
reduce

25-30dB)

the
SCA
region
of
the
baseband,
as
compared
with
the
"stock"

or

also
reduces
any
residual

by
about
6%.
