[hpsdr] A state of shock.

[Bill Tracey]

Hi Jeff,

Couple of things to check - if you pull out Penelope, and have 
nothing other than the USB cable connected to Ozy does the problem 
still occur?

Also, can you tell me a little more on your setup -- PowerSDR version 
(what's the date in the titlebar) and what are the versions reported 
for FX2, Ozy, Penny and Mercury.   What did you have connected to the 
boards when things got glitchy?

Regards,

Bill  (kd5tfd)
