> Hello all -

> I need to replace my computer at my station in Barbados and I have a

>
> I have used Writelog to record some of my contest activity (the comments
on

> feature on the soundboard that does not seem universally available. I
> wanted to record the sent CW and the received audio without turning on the
> sidetone. My solution was to take the sidetone output from the Multikeyer
> and put it in the "line in" on the sound board. I would put a Y connector
> into my headphone line and run a wire to "mic in" on the sound board. The
> soundboard would mix the channels and record them both at once.
>
> It turns out that recording two channels at once is not a feature of every

> Ensoniq Soundboard does not, my SoundBlaster live does not, and my Cyrix
> M300 based mother board in 8P works great. If there is any trend, the
older

this
