Well, you can run the SDR part of Multipsk (just press SDR I/Q Direct button in the configuration area, then press RX/TX to return to the main screen. Then you will see the SDR waterfall open up. The problem is that without an SDR, you will only get up to khz of signal, same as the regular waterfall. Som other than testing CPU load, it defeats the purpose.
I am guessing you are correct about the dual versus single core. I may try to minimize the other items that my PC boots at start up , but they aree not listed by the Task Manager as taking much CPU.
