Are you referring to the anti-aliasing filters in the DAS? I can't think
of any other issues, major or minor, that don't also affect 16MHz BW. (The
DAS anti-aliasing filters are more like 45MHz wide from memory). In fact
it would be relatively simple to workaround this problem, depending how
much trouble you think it's worth.

Cheers,
