Still enjoy using Argo after all these years!
That is an easy one, and will be implemented. Also the suggestion of Jim (increase the sampling rate) was already planned.
Argo will sample at a fixed rate of 22050 Hz, which should be supported practically by all the sound cards, unlike the previous 5512 Hz,
not universally supported. With 22050 Hz you can directly feed the output of the antenna preamp to the sound card input,
when performing experiments at 8.9 kHz.

It would be very nice if you could modify ARGO so it runs in Linux.
If you mean "natively" under Linux, I am sorry, but there are technical reasons why this is not possible, the two major ones being that
the compiler I use (Embarcadero Rad Studio) does not exist under Linux, and the same can be said for the Intel Signal Processing Library,
also used in Argo.

But I have many reports that Argo, Spectran and Winrad work without problems with Wine, a Windows emulator under Linux.

B.Setup Local time differency from UTC then Argo show UTC all cases.
  (1)User can enter a number of time differency from UTC,eg +9. +1.
  (2)Argo will calcurate UTC (including date) then display the UTC time
only.
I don't fully understand you Rick. The difference between local time and UTC time is already managed by Windows,
there is no need for the user to specify it. If the user wants to have the time displayed in UTC format, he just selects
the relevant option and does not change it anymore. Windows will perform the calculations needed.
That choice is remembered from one execution to the next,  so it needs to be entered just once.
