Peter, You are correct about this being a systems issue, and that a engineering approach is the only sure-fire way to eliminate the problems that have been discussed.
However, the problem is that this is impossible to accomplish in the real world. By its very nature, the system changes from installation to installation. Flex has total control over the radio hardware, the radio firmware, & the software (PowerSDR). Flex has limited control over the radio driver. However, they have absolutely no control over the OS installation, the mother board, and the Firewire adapter & driver, and the overall OS environment (other apps that are installed & running). Even in the same installation, the system keeps changing as the user adds, removes, or upgrades other applications that also run on the PC, let alone the numerous updates to the OS. 73, Ray, K9DUR http://k9dur.info _______________________________________________ Flexedge mailing list [email protected] http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexedge_flex-radio.biz This is the FlexRadio Systems e-mail Reflector called FlexEdge.
