Computer too slow or incompatible with software.

Software not configured properly - Check the
documentation for the program that you are using and
verify that your computer meets the minimum
requirements. Verify that the program is configured
correctly (the SignaLink USB s USB Audio CODEC
should be selected as the sound card). If all else fails,
try using a different program.
Why Can't I Receive Some Stations - No matter how good
your antenna and radio are, there will always be some
stations that you cannot copy (even with strong signals!).
While the reason for this may be because of operator error
(wrong mode or baud rate, off frequency, etc.), radio wave
propagation problems can often prevent you from receiving.
Some modes are more susceptible to this than others. For
example, even though PSK31 usually works very well with
weak signals, sometimes even strong PSK31 signals cannot
be copied at all because of multipath and Doppler Shift
propagation problems. Other modes like HF Packet and
RTTY do not work well with weak signals and are
susceptible to multipath and Doppler Shift.
Windows "System Sounds" cause the SignaLink to
transmit
This will NOT happen if you configure
Windows to use your computer s sound card as the default
sound card. See the Connecting The Computer section of
this manual to resolve this problem.
Adjusting the Windows Volume Control Panel has no
effect
If this happens, then you are almost certainly
adjusting the volume controls for the wrong sound card.
Please go back to the Setting The Audio Levels procedure
and pay careful attention to Figure 2, where USB Audio
Codec is selected as the mixer device.
