That's not exactly what I said. I said that performance counter frequency does not NECESSARILY relate to ACPI version. So you can get the ~3.5 MHz reading even if your system is ACPI 2.0. But in most cases you probably should get the CPU clock frequency instead. The explanation that followed was probably confusing. I just described a CPU instruction that provides sub-nanosecond precision regardless of what you get with the performance counter. (And regardless of ACPI version). But the most important thing was to confirm what Bob already said in his first post: This whole high-resolution clock issue was basically bogus. We certainly don't need sub-ns precision for CW timing. The 3.5 MHz frequency should be adequate. > So the FM isn't all that clear or is it? Regarding the "FM" (as Bob and you so passionately call it), I don't find some things you mentioned in my version (1.5.12) of the SDR-1000 Operating Manual. Maybe you have an older version? 73, Sami OH2BFO
