I'm going to experiment with a different soundcard as well. I'm currently using the 24-bit soundcard on my motherboard which is supposedly pretty good but still onboard sound and tasks the CPU more than I like. I have a SoundBlaster sitting here that may be a more capable candidate for this task. BTW, for a weak signal, this internally generated signal is very strong. I have a real hard time hearing the noise unless I crank the can down quite a bit. -- JT Croteau, N1ESE - Manchester, NH _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
