I RTFM. I have my radio set up as described on P 91 of the FM. I have the keyer going to the ext key jack on the back of the radio. I have the new keyer selected. I have Iambic and Monitor turned off and Hi Res turned on. I have the side tone of my keyer going into an external mixer so I can hear the SDR and the sidetone in the cans. I prefer to not reduce the buffer size. As far as I can tell I'm optimized for the buffer size I have chosen. Is there something I'm missing?
I RTFM further and it tells me I should get the clock speed with perf.exe. I get 3,579,545 Hz. I have a P4 with HT 3.3ghz and I checked before I bought it to make absolutely sure it had the high res clock. I RTFM farther and there is a bunch of stuff around P 126 about the "old keyer" I can't even find these forms in the program. So tell me what part of the FM should I be reading? I RTFF and Sami Aintila telle me I will get 3,579,545 Hz even if I have ACPI 2.0 running. So it seems the FM is wrong or not? Or it seems perf.exe will tell me an answer that tells me something or nothing or not? It seems I have ACPI 2.0 or not? It seems I have the keyer hooked up correctly unless I need to be using the "old keyer". So the FM isn't all that clear or is it? Note all I was saying in my post was that for me QSK is not the point, and I don't think its the point for most CW ops. I've accepted this is always going to be a semi break-in experience. Optimizing TX/RX turn-around might improve the feel of the radio on CW. One other thing since I got you on the line. I would like to set up VAC but there is a new version. One of the list members said he had trouble with V 4 would you reccommend just going with V 3.12?
