Curt KU8L asked:
Is there any visible difference between the several available software sound-card solutions for decoding SSTV? Other than soundcard noise, I expect that the faster the soundcard samples, the better?
Even the crummiest sound card will record everything there is to record from a communications-grade audio channel.
In the case of SSTV you are doing frequency demodulation, and the more samples, the better. With modern computers the compute horsepower required is a minor consideration.
All the usual references...
