Re: TalkPCR SA and audio dropout

Hi Folks,

I have cracked the problem. It was caused by the ICOM supplied serial 
lead having a fault. I changed it for a cheap computer type serial 
lead and voila!  Success.

TalkPcr now works 100%
Seems the lead has been faulty since new.

I got a nice scan last night of DC-30Mhz during an aurora.  Nice one.

Kind Regards,

Al.
