- Of particular interest to many users will be the CPU load (excessive CPU load may cause sluggish behaviour or freezing of the computer), and Audio latency. Apart from DDC bandwidth, CPU load may be minimized by reducing the Demodulator filter length (...
- Note: When measuring sensitivity using SINAD, it is very important that the Audio Filter is enabled and the cut-off frequencies (and for FM measurements, also the de-emphasis) are set according to the specified test conditions. Proper audio filtering ...

Resizing the Application Window
The WiNRADiO Excelsior application is fully resizable, which means you can
drag its edges, corners and some internal boundaries to maximize the
available screen space.
The application panel also supports being resized over two or more monitors:
You can literally surround yourself with a complete panorama of radio
spectrum. To adjust the size of the application panel and the proportion of the
three spectrum scopes, simply drag the edges or corners, or the internal
boundaries separating the three spectrum scopes.
Below is an example of how the application window can be resized. This was
achieved by first dragging the right-hand edge of the application panel to
extend the panel horizontally, then making more room for the DDC2 spectrum
at the expense of the DDC1 spectrum by dragging the vertical line separating
them to the right, and, finally, by vertically enlarging the DDC1 and DDC2
spectrum scopes at the expense of the height of the wideband spectrum, by
dragging the dividing horizontal line down:
