I have a question and a possible clue to the issue

Question:

Would a Dell dimension 8400 with a pentium 4 processer be able to handle two nodes at once? For the most part, the first node will only be connected to the second node and the second node will connect to remote nodes.

29655, 29656 and 29657 are all running here on one box...

Possible clue to issue

So I was in the radio-tune-menu option number four, the CTCSS detection. I first did it on node Number 1 and it worked fine just like always. I then tried it on node number 2 and it didn't work and everything was 0. Then I tried it with node number 1 but the USB devices swapped. Node 1 worked, and node 2 didn't. So there is something wrong where no CTCSS will get detected and it is always 0. Here is my USBRADIO.conf

You might want to find another USB buss. Seems to me I recall someone saying that there was sometimes an issue with running two usb sound fobs on the same usb buss, maybe.

Sorry to be so vague, but I really don't remember -exactly-, but I -believe- it was along those lines.
Your mileage may vary
