Thats the limitations on the daughter-board LO. In combination with the
FPGA DSP, the overall chain you can tune you down to 68.75MHz - BW/2 +
host_rate/2, where BW is 40MHz:

You can tune lower depending upon how much of your baseband spectrum
that you are willing to tolerate outside of the passband of the WBX.
