I previously posted problems with MMTTY and WL this weekend. I am running
latest of both pieces of software. The computer here is a 1.7G running
Win2K with all updates.
My problem was that after a period of time the receive function was terrible
to poor. S9+ signals were marginal copy. I did all the resets and punched
the ham button also followed AU's recommendations re afc and shifts.
Nothing worked. I finally gave up during the test. I worked at it for over
8 hours just fiddling to see what might get copy back. I did NOT have any
problems on transmit, hangs or anything else.
