[Elecraft] [OT] PCI Express sound card for digimodes

[Larry Phipps]

My system is a 5-year old single processor P4. I think that has a lot to do with it. Plus, I'm running the latest PowerSDR and CW Skimmer to get to these numbers. Still, the USB sound card produces double the load of my PCI sound cards.

This may be OS dependent, or it may be due to hidden sample rate conversions
in the drivers.
I use the EMU-0202 with Quisk for LP-PAN and Griffin iMic with fldigi
simultaneously on Linux and don't notice this level of CPU load at all.
