Well have a new computer. Windows 7 seems to be pretty decent, unfortunately the number of available slots leaves something to be desired. I only have three slots, one which is occupied by a video card (soon to be replaced by on that will eat up TWO slots). I have EMU sound cards, but only have one slot left.
I am considering a bluegears b-Enspirer 7.1 Channels 24-bit 192KHz PCI Interface Sound Card, with the intention of using it for SDR/Panadapter/etc. Anyone have any experience with this card? Second, this new machine has ZERO serial ports and I need at least four. Cards aren't an option. So looking for an external hub capable of providing four or six assignable serial ports for SO2R and some other equipment. I'm considering this: StarTech.com 4 Port USB to Serial Adapter Hub with COM Retention Serial adapter - USB - 4 ports. Any experience or suggestions? Primarily I'll be using this equipment with 2 K3s, not that this should matter...
