If PowerSDR is off, the PC and SDR1K powered up and relays are clicking, then there is a probability that the relay clicks are causes by "phantom" voltages on the parallel card since all the parallel card is doing is "bit banging" the SDR1K.
If either the SDR1K and/or the PC are powered off, this should not happen. If the SDR-1000 is powered off, check to see if voltage is leaking through the switch. I don't see how the relays could click if there is no power on the SDR-1000 at all. -Tim -----Original Message----- From: flexradio-boun...@flex-radio.biz [mailto:flexradio-boun...@flex-radio.biz] On Behalf Of Edwin Marzan Sent: Wednesday, April 20, 2011 12:08 AM To: whit...@usa.net; hubb...@hotmail.com; flexradio@flex-radio.biz Subject: Re: [Flexradio] SDR-1000 makes clicking sound when not powered on butDC available How can one confirm if it was voltage spikes on the parallel port?
