Real-time spectral waterfall and DBPSK demodulator for TOS 4.04.

The 14.2 Hz peak shows up as a bright white vertical line against the blue background noise.
Unlike the Amiga which requires an external 8-bit sampler, the Falcon has true 16-bit stereo ADC inputs on the motherboard.

Too bad Atari marketing was so incompetent that nobody bought the Falcon before they pulled out of the computer market.
