I will keep using the beta and keep an eye out for the 4.0 update.
Cheers,
Chris

Re: 269c HCG and LCG
Hi Robin,
Thanks for the reply: that makes things clear. I will start off using the Sharpcap default. Once I have used that for a while, I may experiment as you suggest. I will let you know the reults when I do.

Chris
