The 2.8 MHz limitation comes from shipping raw RF samples off the device over USB 2. When operating as a DVB-T receiver the device decodes the signals before sending them over USB so it uses less bandwidth.

The device was originally intended only as a dtv receiver and not a general purpose software defined radio. The hobbyist/ hacker community discovered the hidden debug mode that allows raw data acquisition and wrote drivers for it.
