chan_simpleusb is basically a 'gutted' version of chan_usbradio. It has no DSP functionality whatsoever.<br>It is designed for radios that provide COR and/or CTCSS detection signals, and will run FAR more efficiently<br>allowing for use on MUCH slower CPUs.<br><br>JIM WB6NIL<br><br><hr id="stopSpelling">From: yokshs@sbcglobal.net<br>To: app_rpt-users@ohnosec.org<br>Date: Tue, 15 Feb 2011 09:05:51 -0600<br>Subject: [App_rpt-users] Beagleboard and USB URI dongle<br><br>
