What is with the amount of stuttering I have noticed over the last 2 months from various nodes and networks all over? It started intermittently and there has been multiple discussion consisting theory of latency, bandwidth, processor loading, codecs, (specifically ULaw) to the earth curvature not being consistent.
It is also not contained to any transport medium whether, fiber, cable, DSL, or damp string.
Could it be our Internet gurus are suffering from capacity and growing pains, or perhaps the PTB dirtboxes need a overdue expansion in government OMB capital?
I an curious. It isn't just restricted to small networks. The big unlimited data center connections are stuttering like DJHam on epinephrine.
IRLP (sigh) is sounding better.... Lately..... For a second.......
Thank you for your thoughts and expertise in advance.

But there are lots of retired hams who have more time than money. I'm not one
just yet :(
It's funny, I sell quantar firmware SIMMs on eBay, and I have clearly stated
in the ad if you want >1 I'll knock 25 bux off. I had a fella message me with
this gem yesterday when I refused his half price offer for one unit.
"WHY YOU CHARGE SUCH HIGH PRICE FOR SOMETHIN YOU BUILD IN 10 MIN! IT
DOCUMENTTED ON THE WEB WHAT YOU SELL! WHAT THINK YOU DESERVE FOR COPYING SOME
ONE ELSE WORK AND SELLING IT!"
He gave me this link, http://wiki.w9cr.net/index.php/Quantar#SIMM_info
implying I copied how to do it from there..
I made up some docs, take time and test each one and then package it. You're
paying for my time and the convenience. Too much? I've documented it and
you're free to build it yourself.
Some people, right? :)

It wasn't planned, Steve. I simply took advantage of an opportunity.
It was probably a little premature, but whatever.

No one is going to get rich from a $35 USB radio adapter - considering
the cost of the circuit board and components. Genuine C-Media CM119A's
are not easily sourced, as there are LOTS of fakes out there. My
product considers the spirit of amateur radio, allowing someone to build
something, learn about it, and save money.
If you feel the advantages of this product offering doesn't merit its
price, that's okay. But, it does have several advantages over a simple
FOB, and it's obvious you didn't read about it to see what they are.
So, I'll take that into consideration for what it's worth.
