w4pgh k3gau n4wi wa9hcz ni9y n9fdf k9vu wb8rol ai4cm Thats just the ones in my log on laptop(im at work) Most of those I have worked at least 3-5 times, some....alot more(k3gau,w4pgh)
No less than 8 diff. soundcards..from onboard to one I spent almost 100 bucks on...lol Again....I love MultiPSK...I almost never run any other digi-ware...well...FLDigi when I run Puppy. MultiPSK is the ONLY digi software I have paid for...and that says alot for me... Im cheap!!...LOL.... If it just had a delay kick in when it losses sync...then it could re-sync. One gud static crash and it can lose sync. Look...Im not trin' to be a prick... but we have tried everything..."been there, done that" kinda thing... Me and Bill gave up on it and now use Olivia or DominoEX....most of the time(75%) it works fine... but that 25% was just too much... and I didnt keep records..it may not be 25%..but it was enuff to frustrate(sp?) us.... I think if that ONE issue was solved..ALE/FAE400 would be the BEST error free soundcard mode out there!!
