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

Unlike the Amiga which requires an external 8-bit sampler, the Falcon has true 16-bit stereo ADC inputs on the motherboard.
A 256-point complex FFT is computed every 10 milliseconds, displaying a live spectrogram on a standard VGA monitor.

Requires 4MB ST-RAM and an RGB or VGA monitor.

The SSI to DSP56001 architecture on the Falcon is magnificent. Zero CPU overhead during 50 kHz audio acquisition.

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