Thanks for the suggestions. I will double check with the other ham on the sound card calibration. We had to do this a while back as we were having difficulty with MFSK16 which requires even more accuracy I think I read in the help files, 4 Hz!
On thing that would help us is some kind of measurement to tell us when we are locked on the phase/frequency OK, similar to the way the earlier programs displayed the graphic phase meter on screen when we operated PSK31. By the way, once you do the calibration, is there any way to know that it was done, other than it indicating the offset that it detected? For example, my sound card shows still shows 11101 and 76 Hz offset and does not vary much from that when I run the test each time. On other thing. Has anyone running ICOM"s with the CI-V had any problem with the rig not turning off transmit sometimes? This seems to happen with my 756 Pro 2 every so often. 73, Rick, KV9U Patrick Lindecker wrote: > Hello Rick, > > Yes, I confirm, you must: > > * calibrate Multipsk with the sound card installed: click on "Sampling > freq." then click on "Determination of the standard RX sampling > frequency..." and "Determination of the standard TX sampling > frequency...".
