I've been using mimo 7" USB touchscreen (like Beppe uses ) with custom software for satellite work and Digital work and it works great for me.
Check out these guys for reasonable cost touchscreens. http://www.monoprice.com I have installed the 15" and 17" as Point of Sale terminals at a couple of restaurants and they have held up well.

I realize it is not though. TeamViewer is pretty limited in control as a true touch screen linked to the computer isn't. I can see having a touch screen to control certain aspects of the PowerSDR interface via touch screen. I already run PowerSDR and another radio application on a second 21 inch monitor. My main monitor is switched back over to my Linux desktop. Having more control than the marble mouse that sits under the PowerSDR monitor would be nice. The price of touch screens will have to come down before I spring for one. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Neal Campbell Date: Tuesday, December 20, 2011 Subject: [Flexradio] Touch screen To: "Robert Costa, KB6QXM" <kb6...@yahoo.com> Cc: FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz Hi Bob The question isn't its technical capability, its whether I actually use it. HP had a tough time selling those systems and I think that have pulled that line off the market, which would indicate that either it was not engineered properly for the price, or its not that useful an implementation to the public at large. I honestly didn't think I was going to like the Hercules MP3 controller very much, and it exceeded my expectations by a long way. Lets see if using a touch screen is the same way! 73 On Tue, Dec 20, 2011 at 3:50 PM, Robert Costa, KB6QXM <kb6...@yahoo.com >wrote: > Neil, > > I am kind of confused on your statements about touch screens with the > flex.
