David, I've been using the external USB Steinberg UR22. It's 192KHz sample rate at 24 bits. It's listed as have a 120 db SNR. It's ASIO compliant and cost is around $130 from Sweetwater. I don't know if Linux supports this card or not.

I see the Tascam mentioned in the PDF in the other thread, so I'm looking into those (the ones that support 192kHz now, that is) - are there any other suggestions to look into? I operate on a lot of digital modes, but my Lenovo Thinkpad T400's built in sound card adds a lot of noise to the signal I'm receiving. I have a Native Instruments Audio Kontrol 1 which works much better, but it is USB powered (it seemed to be indicated this was a no-no for best decoding in digital modes in the other thread). There are a lot of options out there now, so it's hard to sift through them all, and make a guess as to which are best for HF radio digital communication, so I thought a thread would be helpful in getting some ideas on what is tested/true. If Linux support is unknown, that's ok - I can do that research - but it would be great to have a list to start looking at that are known good performers with low noise. Thanks!
