In response to my Friday request, I received the following on Saturday from Kevin Schmidt, W9CF, author of the nifty software SBDVP, which makes your cheap Sound Blaster work like an expensive and hard to find DVP board, and without using up another precious EISA slot either.

Tree seems to have started a trend with his nearly instantaeous customer service response time.

I have D/L ed it and tested it with my CVB-YaesuDVS cables, and can happily report the it works as described below.  Now you too can make SBDVP work with your regular rig microphone, (like that Heil boomset with the HC-4 element) exactly like a DVP and cable set.

Best of all it is FREE!  (you do have to buy parts solder up the cables though)
