I was under the impression that those stability issues were mainly the sound card oscillator that cause this "drift" as opposed to the master oscillator... so the issue is more with the PC than the SDR ?? in any case I consider 25 hz stability pretty "high stability oscillator " anyhow Is

Probably some stupid questions here (I truly hope not), but I'm sort of green when it comes to the digital modes. I thought I would experiment with using my SDR and MixW2 to receive and possibly transmit on some of the digital modes for a change. I have the the virtual serial port driver installe

Thanks guys, guess it doesn't surprise me. Microsoft doesn't have a clue when it comes to backwards compatibility. But I wanted to make sure I wasn't leaving out some libraries or files or something simple. And yeah, all this "object oriented" coding leaves my old procedural head spinning! :) Tha

What's the phase noise like from a HP Z3801A GPS standard? I have one and have thought about interfacing to my SDR. Having super frequency accuracy would be nice, but not at the expense of degrading overall system performance. Right now I use my Z3801 to discipline test equipment. Being able to

Brian, I guess it's ok to use two sound cards but it's more common among SDR1k users to use VAC, in which case you will not hear anything from MixW. There are two papers on the web site you need. "Using the SDR-1000 with Third Party Programs," and "How to Set up VAC with PowerSDR" by Bob
