I can not do that Dave as I never have tried scamp.
And really not up with the sound card stuff any longer.
I don't care for PSK and never went back to it after a week
or two.
+++Then having a technical discussion with you is a waste of time,
John. You were right, the thread is dead.
But it seems to me - if it can be done we all would be
doing it right now. And that I don't see.
>>>There are people using PSKMail every day. The fact that you
personally don't enjoy PSK doesn't alter the fact that PSKMail
demonstrates the viability of ARQ in a protocol running on a PC with
a soundcard.
I really did not like the fact that what I did test or try that
was a so called *ARQ* sound card mode was on it's very
best day only 42 per cent of what a side by side TNC was
running.
>>>This is like citing back in 1910, "a horse can outrun a model T"

Come on Mr. software guy, give my a ARQ sound card mode
like Amtor or Pactor mode, please. One that will work with my
500Mhz Dell's that I have here (anyone of the 9 of them)
+++My dance card is already full.
