RE: Re: TalkPCR SA and audio dropout |
Hi C
Dust.
I've
owned the PCR-1000 for a few years. Its a great little radio so long as you dont
connect it to a longwire aerial.
After
cursing Pete for several years I have to take my hat off to him. It wasn't
his fault after all.
TalkPcr is a wonderful piece of software. I take my hat off to
Pete.
Regards,
Al.

welcome to the wonderful world of
talkPCR! You will really like this
program ((C.Dust
bows before the creator,Pete))
enjoy!
