All it took to get my radio going (before I tackled the amplifier issues I had)
was some forethought. I decided I needed a dedicated computer (so as to
avoid all the problems with networking (viruses, AV sw, firewalls, etc.)) so I
said how can I get a fast machine cheap (cause I am a cheap guy). I went
on eBay and found an in-warranty IBM server for $275. Worked like a
champ. I am thinking they probably retire these servers preventively at
two years of age to avoid problems happening while in service. That means
a constant supply of two-year-old high-end machines. Goody for us.
