Yeh! That did it. I did read the text file that came with Wincoupe, but
forgot once it was running.

I used my Morse code tutor to check how well it ran. It has an interupt
driven clock in it.
The program was written using a real Sam and the clock is pretty accurate,
least it is on my Sam.
In full screen mode and with mode 3 turned on, the clock loses 10 seconds
per minute. (approx)
Sound is a bit rough in this mode.
In full screen mode and with mode 3 turned off, The clock gains 4 seconds
per minute. (approx)
Sound is much better and the Tutor is useable.

In that mode I get a max of 22-24
In normal startup mode with colour bars showing I get 48-53
After Enter is pressed (colour bars gone, only cursor on screen) I get 22-25
Hope this helps..
