UBX 10-500 MHz Question

so with the UBX-160 on an X310, there is the following caveat:

  • The UBX 160 transmitter path has 160 MHz of bandwidth throughout the full frequency range of the device; the receiver path has 84 MHz of bandwidth for center frequencies from 10 MHz to 500 MHz.

I guess my question is how does this manifest itself?

If I ask for 100 MHz of BW, do I get 84 or does it fail?

How would I get 84 given the requirement of sample rate be an even divisor of 200 MHz clock?

If I wanted 100 in that range, would there be any way to get it from a single channel in that band?  Most other cards don't seem to have the BW in that range.

Thanks,
