[TenTec] N4PY Orion Control Program Version 1.12 Released

[jerome schatten]

Hmmm... sounds like a computer rather than the control software problem. 
I've used the Pegasus software on four different computers from a P100 up to 
a P4/3gig machine and never noticed that kind of a lag.

I have noticed, using Task Manager, that large frequency excursions tend to 
be the most cpu resource intensive -- sometimes up to 80% for a split 
second, but I never could correlate that with a visible/audible lag. It's 
interesting that HRD behaves exactly the same with a large change in vfo 
frequency.

I would bet that a 486 might show the kind of behaviour you describe.

Best,
