Re: PSK31 Software Radio <radio@...> #51991 Chris, I think the conservation of computing resources can be taken too far. Especially given how cheap RAM, processing power and storage has become. As a user, I really don’t care how spartan the code is as long as it works. Saving a few milliseconds isn’t on my radar.

Re: Receive Antennas W7RIV #51988 Brian, K9WIS I would like to see what they use. Any input you have would be appreciated. I have access to a field out back from me. I've just not taken the time to put any wires up at home. I also would like a portable one to use for outings.
