If I think of a reason Bill, I'll let you know. I managed 625 Q's in a sort of sporadic effort in the CQ WW RTTY this last weekend with N1MM, MMTTY, my laptop w/sound card, and two Radio Shack audio cables between Line[s] In and Line[s] Out on the laptop and K3. My AFSK A pitch is at 915 [I can hear that, I can't hear much higher than that, YMMV] which is also what I set in MMTTY, and that was the end of the set-up other than the levels which weren't at all hard. Be sure to turn off all the Windoze noises on your computer. I haven't really mastered dual-PB yet, or maybe I have and it's not a lot different than non-dual-PB. I do know that MMTTY was decoding stations [and I was working them] that I really couldn't hear, I could just see their faint trace on the WF. 73, Fred K6DGW - Northern California Contest Club - CU in the 2010 Cal QSO Party 2-3 Oct 2010 - www.cqp.org ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
