Every day. Works great. I set the audio levels in DIGIL or DIGIU depending on which band I'm on and then switch to USB or LSB . Seems to work better than using DIGIU or DIGIL alone. Just watch your drive levels in the digital modes, especially Easypal. Lot's of friendly help on 14.233 and e

If you do still have issues, try a different firewire card. NEC chipsets are probably the least compatible on the market with the exception of JMicron. 73 Neal Campbell Abroham Neal Software www.abrohamnealsoftware.com (540) 645 5394 On Sun, Nov 28, 2010 at 12:26 PM, Tim Ellison wrote: > R

Let's say you have VAC attached to Skype so a buddy can use it to talk in a roundtable or check into a net. You also want to participate (but when it is your turn.) The VAC is active so he can hear and transmit. When it is your turn, pick up the front panel mic and key the PTT. When the mic
