Hello Dick / Group. I have read through Dick's analysis, of the counterpoise / earth comparison and have a little trouble trying to realise the antennas described. It's quite late and I'll probably s

Hello All. Does anyone have a "fix" for a fault that causes spectrogram (or windows) to crash when it's started up on 5k5 sample rate? It appears to happen irrespectively of the number of FFT points
Hi Jim I tried to send direct to you about 73k but it sort of bounced. If you can send a confirmation of your email address I send it again Cheers de Alan G3NYK [email protected] Ditto G0MRF
Thank you to everyone who has offered suggestions about my spectrogram problems. The fault has been identified as the built in soundcard on the P2 motherboard. "As much use as a chocolate teapot" sum
