I think my bandwidth was set at about 8 Khz

I've build a down converter in my old IC-735 and have about 22 Khz of spectrum
to look at at once. Using Xlinrad as the SDR. Had the audio passband
in Double Side Band mode.. 4 kHz below and 4 kHz above the center
frequency.
Signal strength in Linrad wasn't calibrated , but on the icom analog
meter S9+30 dB
