Oh Boy! This brings back memories! The year was 1982. I remember the
very first time I wrote a program to control a process machine! I was ready
for the first demonstration and, with the company president standing behind
me, pressed the "Start" button. Away we went. So far so good. I pressed
"stop" and nothing happened! I had a bit to learn! And a few years
before that I was part of a project that controlled a filament winding
machine. There was no such thing as a personal computer then and the new
"leading edge" microprocessor used in the "built from scratch" computer
simply wasn't fast enough to do the math required! Of course, we didn't
know that until the whole thing was actually built!
I never complain about any Flex-Radio real time problems!

Drax,
Ah, but the computer IS the radio......hi..hi.
Before I retired, I wrote PC-based process control software for a living.
Even with the relatively low data rates required in our production floor
applications, one of our biggest challenges was the fact that Windows does
NOT provide a real-time processing environment.
