Are you using the demo version of VAC? If so, the decode errors are from the embedded voice that says "trial" every few seconds.

VAC is working and I am trying different digital- mode applications. It is interesting to see how different the quality of the copy is. I have my MacBook Pro connected via analog cable to line out and am using CocoaModem to monitor the off-air signal as I fumble with VAC and various digital mode programs on the PC, i.e. MixW and MultiPSK. It is interesting to see the difference in the quality of the copy between the various programs. Right now I am looking at both the Mac and PC printing out a PSK31 QSO but the error rate for MixW is *MUCH* higher than the error rate in CocoaModem on the Mac. Not having any other experience with this what should I expect? No, I have not tried routing the analog signal to the sound card in the PC to see how that works. So, since I have no experience with Windows-based soundcard digital mode programs, should I be looking at something other than MixW? MultiPSK's UI is much more cluttered but seems to work pretty well. I occasionally play with PSK31 but am much more interested in more robust modes like MFSK and Olivia. -- 73 de Brian, WB6RQN Brian Lloyd - brian HYPHEN wb6rqn AT lloyd DOT com _______________________________________________ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ Knowledge Base: http://kb.flex-radio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flex-radio.com/ _______________________________________________ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ Knowledge Base: http://kb.flex-radio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flex-radio.com/
