I HAD MY FIRST RTTY QSO THIS MORNING SINCE DECEMBER 3rd. WHAT A GREAT BUNCH
OF OPS THE RTTY GROUP IS. ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO ALL MY RTTY PROGRAMS CEASED TO
WORK. MY REQUEST FOR HELP ON THIS REFLECTOR RESULTED IN 21 REPLIES AND THE
EVENTUAL SOLVING OF MY PROBLEM. THERE IS NO WAY I CAN THANK EACH OF YOU
ENOUGH, BUT ANYWAY, I THANK ALL OF YOU VERY MUCH.
SPECIAL THANKS TO THE FOLLOWING: PETER, N5UWY; ROY, N8YYS; RON, K0IDT;
GERT, K5WW; PAUL, VA3PC; JOE, K0JN; ART, W2NRA; MIKE, K4GMH; JIM,
M0ZAK; BILL, W6WRT; ANDREI, EW1AR-NP3D; STEVE, KT0DX; DINO, KL0S; BOB,
W7LR; JAKE, AA1E; DAVE, AA6YQ; JIM, W7RY and RICK, KT7G. A SPECIAL THANK
YOU TO CHARLES, KK5OQ WHO CALLED ME ON THE LAND LIND AND WORKED WITH ME FOR
OVER AND HOUR. SOMEONE CALLED FROM OHIO WHILE I WAS GONE AND TALKED TO MY
SON. HE DID NOT LEAVE A NAME OR CALL.
SEQUENCE OF EVENTS: ON 16 DECEMBER I TRIED TO OPEN MY RTTY PROGRAMS
(MMTTY/N1MM/MIXW) AND THEY WOULD NOT RESPOND.
POST ON RTTY REFLECTOR WITH MANY GOOD SUGGESTIONS. TRIED MANY WAYS TO
SOLVE THE PROBLEM USING THE SUGGESTIONS SENT TO ME.
NOTHING WORKED AND THE PROGRAMS WOULD NOT RESPOND. MMTTY SAID THERE WAS
NO SOUND.
EXHAUSTING ALL THE SUGGESTIONS I DECIDED THAT THE ON BOARD SOUND CARD
WAS DEFECTIVE AND HAD IT REPLACED.
THE ON BOARD SOUND CARD WAS THE PROBLEM.
OPENED MMTTY AND IT COULD NOT FIND THE SOUND CARD. CHANGED THE ID FROM
+1 BACK TO THE DEFAULT -1 AND EVERYTHING WORKED.
MMTTY MESSAGE THAT I HAD "OVERFLOW". LOWERED THE SOUND CARD VOLUME AND
THAT MESSAGE WAS GONE.
MADE QSO WITH OM1EI THIS MORNING AND AM I EVER A HAPPY CAMPER.
USING MMTTY ver 1.65D again as it worked before for my AFSK. DOWN LOADED
N1MM VER 8.0.0 FULL VERSION AND THEN DID THE UP DATE. IT IS WORKING OK AND I
HOPE TO BE IN THE RTTY RU NEXT MONTH. MY MIXW IS ALSO WORKING.
THIS OLD HAM REALLY APPRECIATES ALL THE OFFERS OF HELP. THIS IS WHAT HAM
RADIO IS ALL ABOUT. WHENEVER ANYONE NEEDS HELP, THOSE WITH THE EXPERTISE
SHARE THEIR KNOWLEDGE FREELY AND HELP THOSE IN NEED. SAYING THANK YOU SEEMS
INADEQUATE. BUT, THANK YOU ALL AND I HOPE TO WORK MANY OF YOU IN 2009 AND
BEYOND.
SEE YOU IN THE CONTEST PILE UPS..... DICK KS0M
