Dave -- I wrote the iambic keying code that's used in PowerSDR. I myself am a 99% CW op and was when I was first licensed in 1962. The Bobs N4HY and K5KDN are superb, long-time CW ops both by profession and avocation.
I mention these things simply to emphasize that getting CW right is not an afterthought for us. It's a matter of paramount importance. And a lot of where the Flex software needs to go from here will also depend on getting exactly the same turnaround issues nailed down once and for all. Any of the ARQ digital modes place the same stresses on turnaround. There is no alternative to doing it correctly. That said, there is no way to truly clean up the problem without some radical surgery. As the proverb goes, be careful what you ask for, since you might get it ;-) 73 Frank AB2KT On Fri, Apr 25, 2008 at 11:24 AM, Dave Blaschke <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > OK, here is my final word on this topic. > > PowerSDR/SDR-5000 is an outstanding performer, in my opinion.
