It is interesting you should mention that as I completely knock out my broadband when I transmit on 3.5-3.8 MHz too and the other night I managed to lock up my Netgear router too when running 50w of CW.

Hi Simon Does that mean there is RF near router? Mine is a Netgear too. I have not trouble when I use my vertical 50m from the house., but when I use 80m half wave sloper terminated about 5m from house, Netgear drops out (all on 80m SSB or CW)
Has anyboy had any success on CW sending programs with Linux?
My hearing is going and I find it much harder to send without hearing sidetone. I have had a lot of success with all modes including CW decode with GMFSK, but not with CW TX
I found this in FLdigi help file "You might ask why fldigi doesn't simply provide a keyline output on one of the parallel port pins or on RTS or DTR via a comm port. The answer is quite simple. Linux is a multi-tasking operating system and the interaction between the OS and the application causes the timing to be adversely effected. The driver implementation of the audio sub system must be responsive and so the OS gives that sub system a very high priority in its multi-tasking structure." Which could explain the CW send problem. Better go there is thunderstorm coming :)
