Dave, this happened to me a few weeks ago. I was working on a setup for something digital and disconnected my PC-to-rig cables, I still copied PSK and could not for the live of me figure out what was going on. Then I realized that I had received a Skype call which had activated my PC mic-in line . The Mic was 10 feet away from the radio but still copied well.
