Sample rate in samples per second of the signal that is sent over UDP. The actual byte rate depends on the type of sample which corresponds to a number of bytes per sample.

- `S16LE AM !DC Mono`: Same as above but with a DC block based on magnitude average over a 5 ms period
- `S16LE AM BPF Mono`: Same as AM Mono but raw magnitude signal is passed through a bandpass filter with lower cutoff at 300 Hz and higher cutoff at RF bandwidth frequency
<h3>5: Signal sample rate</h3>
Sample rate in samples per second of the signal that is sent over UDP. The actual byte rate depends on the type of sample which corresponds to a number of bytes per sample.
<h3>6: Remote IP address</h3>
IP address of the remote destination to which samples are sent
<h3>7: Signal bandwidth</h3>
The signal is bandpass filtered to this bandwidth (zero frequency centered) before being sent out as raw I/Q samples or before being demodulated for SSB and FM outputs. Thus a 20000 Hz bandwidth for example means +/-10000 Hz around center channel frequency.
When SSB formats are used only the lower half (LSB) or upper half (USB) of the bandwidth is used. Thus to pass SSB over 3000 Hz bandwidth one should set this signal bandwidth to 6000 Hz.
<h3>8: Remote data port</h3>
<h3>8: FM deviation</h3>
Remote UDP port number to which samples are sent
This is the maximum expected FM deviation in Hz for NFM demodulated samples. Therefore it is active only for `NFM` types of sample formats. A positive deviation of this amount from the central carrier will result in a sample output value of 32767 (0x7FFF) corresponding to a +1.0 real value. A negative deviation of this amount from the central carrier will result in a sample output value of -32768 (0x8000) corresponding to a -1.0 real value.
<h3>9: Local audio UDP port</h3>
<h3>9: AGC and audio feedback control</h3>
There is a possible feedback of audio samples at 48 kHz into SDRangel using this port as the UDP port on the local machine to collect the audio samples.

<h4>9.1: Toggle AGC</h4>
It is effective only for AM and SSB. Signal is normalized to +/- 0.5 times the maximum amplitude with a time constant (averaging) of 200 ms. When engaged the squelch gate is fixed at 50 ms. The release time controlled by (15.3) can be increased from the 50 ms default for SSB signals to prevent accidental signal drops due to drops in the voice.

This turns on or off the audio samples feedback

Sets the delay after which a signal constantly above the squelch threshold effectively opens the squelch. The same delay is used for squelch release except for SSB where the gate is fixed at 50 ms and this controls the release time only.
The delay in milliseconds is displayed at the right of the button.
