The one I've been recommending with significantly better decodes is a new entry called Dire Wolf from WB2OSZ: http://home.comcast.net/~wb2osz/site/ If you download the new beta source archive ( http://home.comcast.net/~wb2osz/Version%201.0/direwolf-1.0-src.zip ), open up the zip, look in the User-Guide and check out Chapter 10. In there, it gives a table of Dire wolf's # of decodes compared to all kinds of TNCs including Soundmodem and safe to say, it blows away Soundmodem due to it's multiple off frequency decoders, multi-bit error correction, etc.. There is also a version for the Raspberry Pi as well! Back to your original problem, I suspect your issue is in the Linux sound system. Are you using PulseAudio? Did you run pavucontrol and route the audio from Soundmodem to your desired soundcard? --David KI6ZHD
