2: Lo ppm correction

-This is the correction factor in ppm applied to the local oscillator. The Airspy HF LO has 1 kHz increments so anything in between is obtained by mixing the signal with a Hz precision NCO. This is actually done in the AirspyHF library. - -On HF band the LO correction is not necessary because the LO is largely precise enough for the frequencies involved. You can disable the NCO in AirspyHF library by setting the value to zero. Since the LO control in SDRangel has a 1 kHz step the NCO correction will always be zero. In AirspyHF library (my fork) the NCO is not active (no extra complex multiplication) if the correction is zero. On HF band it is recommended not to use the LO correction (set it or leave it at 0). +This is the correction factor in ppm applied to the local oscillator.
