So far I've been decoding Opera32, WSPR2 and WSPR15 simultaneously on an
old IBM "Thinkpad" in the shack. This weekend I've managed a wireless
connection to a desktop PC in the house so only a receiver is running in
the shack leaving nice, clean signals.
Decoding Opera 32 is going well (3000km best so far this evening) but
the PC, with the same operating system and radio software, will not
decode any WSPR at the same time. I haven't yet tried running just
WSPR-X (for WSPR2) on it's own but it does show a good signal on the
waterfall if I arrange a 1.5kHz heterodyne in the shack. Why would a
supposedly superior computer refuse to cooperate, I suspect the Realtek
on-board sound card and software is not actually up to the job?
