However, strong stations (radio3) sound slightly worse with the DIY antenna than with the basic DVB antenna. -May be caused by clipping due to too strong signal from antenna. +Theory: Distortion caused by clipping I/Q samples due to strong antenna signal. +No, that's not it. Reducing LNA gain or IF gain does not help much; +small DVB antenna still sounds better than DIY antenna. +Difference only clear in stereo mode. +Don't know what's going on here, maybe the DIY antenna is just not good.
