[App_rpt-users] USB Adapter has no EEPROM installed

[Corey Dean]

Please state some facts to show this! I have tested this with audio analyzes and have yet to see what you are talking about.  If this is the case then my users can't tell the difference either and I have some users work in the broadcast industry.  All I am asking for is proof.  Could people just not be setting this up right?  I have heard this and just not seen or heard the proof.

From what I've been able to learn through varius wikis and posts on the subject, I would want to use simpleusb because all of the hardware connections for COS and CTCSS are provided so there is no reason to use the DSP features of USBRadio thus simplifying what the driver has to do and perhaps lowering the CPU utilization.  I've also read some posts that describe audio degredation in the USBRadio driver but I can't tell you the cause.  I expect the                   right answer here is for me to try out both and experiment - which I will do but would appreciate any wisdome from the group on their experience with these drivers when using the DMK URI and hardware connections for COS/CTCSS.  My current configuration below is getting favorable audio reports.
