[hpsdr] 14bit Hermes Schematic?

If you persist on using Windoz 10 I suggest that you use the "Windows 
Update Blocker" [Wub.zip]  Direct link below.  We use this at the Sun 
City Computer Club [firstsuncity.com] on all of the PC's for obvious 
reasons.

Information page with details [link below] but sort of a hidden button 
for the download.

A better solution would be to revert back to Windoz 7 and turn off all 
updates.  I have been using a clean install of W7 since 2013 with only 
two or three required updates to get IE  to work when absolutely  needed 
[I never normally use IE11].  I also use win XP a lot because of the 
keyboard & other shortcuts that were removed from XP because the wiz 
kids at M$ did not understand what they did.  Also many excellent, 
older, programs do not run on 64bit systems.

I have not tried any of the Protocol 2 software as yet but all of the 
current ,older, HPSDR software works on XP and Win 7 for my Hermes and 
the newest Hermes-Lite2 Build9.
