Hello all, I have no issues with V1.14.0 so far. I run my SDR1k on 80, 40 and 20m on SSB, AM, PSK, RTTY and CW. On Digital modes I use VAC with Hamscope/MMTTY and all seems to be working very well....
I just want to thank the boys at Flex for continuing their support of the SDR1k. The new PowerSDR software has got some really great features. Again, Thanks, Dennis, k0eoo ---- Dudley Hurry <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Don, > > Using VAC, you use the VAC TX Gain to regulate your output, if you are > using the conventional method of physical cables to and from the > computer sound card, use the TX gain.
