Jim: The link that you posted dead ends at a closed AOL Hometown website. I checked the link mainly to see what you were talking about (ex. two channel). Are you using the DXPSK software because it will run on an old computer? If so, did you make your software choice based on needing a program that is compatible with an old Windows operating system or based on a computer's modest hardware such as old CPU, limited amount of RAM etc? My Windows XP machine is out of service and I am unable to replace it. I have an offer of a Pentium II machine that runs well using Windows 98 SE. When my radio and computer equipment fails and I can no longer fix it, I will have to let it go and look for older used equipment. I can't find some of the parts for my older radio equipment that I need to put the equipment back into operation. I have not found looking for older computer equipment very fruitful. What I have heard several times is that people have been scared off from the practice of recycling their old computers for fear of someone stealing their identity and banking records from the hard drives that in the computer. It is too late to educate a person in how to wipe a hard drive if they have already disposed of their computer. Because of this I can not be picky when looking for an old but serviceable computer to use with digital sound card programs. Information on the requirements needed to run specific software is appreciated.

To get the program to copy signals you must click the speaker icon, and a red X appears over the speaker. On start up the speaker icon is not red X'ed, and you do not see any waterfall, or see anything decoded. Dispite this very minor confusion, I think I'm going to be able to use this program on my older 120mHz Compaq 1130T. Too bad I cant get Digipan going, but DXPSK should do very nicely.
