[WriteLog] Re: [RTTY] New Turtle Beach Sound Cards

[Jerry Pixton]

All sound cards afectionados,

I thought we were getting GOOD reports on the Turtle Beach Santa Cruz card? 
A 7b does not sound good to me? What is the truth?

I saw so many obvious bit errors in the BARTG that I was ready to go order 
a Santa Cruz today to try.

Unusual amount of bit errors, about half of the weak stations got my call 
as w1ihg/4. Judging from the other errors I saw, the errors were likely in 
decoding on my end.  The clone windows saved the day, but then I got 4 
different versions of a serial number at times, HI

Lots of missing letters. (due to sound card ??????)

Jerry, W6IHG
