Thank you Howard, Andrew, and the others who have chipped in with suggestions.
The PC is a Dell laptop PII at 166MHz, which makes your "oldie" look like a "newie" Others have also told me DigiTX won't work, neither will HamPal. I'm trying WinDRM but today is the contest and the band is jammed with people making 2 second contacts (how fast can *you* talk?) As to your question about the constellation, I have psoted a picture of a sscreen shot of DIGITRX during an unsucessful receive. http://www.bambinomusical.com/Constellation.jpg <http://www.bambinomusical.com/Constellation.jpg> --- In digitalradio@yahoogroups.com, "w6ids" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Hey Dave........ > > As I understand it, DigiTRX won't run on less than WIN XP......
