sorry to insist but there's a problem...

with the data slicer from the bleu and yellow plan,
http://www.radioreference.com/apps/wiki/index.php?title=Data_Slicers

first, I tested it with "slicer.exe" the results seem perfect.
With "Unitrunker", I'm not able to even have a signal ; "no signal" appears all the time.
I think I did all the right settings but can you tell me wich settingse important to do.
I'm almost certain that my problem is a bad setting.
win 98 and unitrunker v. 1.17

note, with the audio cable, it work well
thank's a lot

That's because UniTrunker doesn't need to use input from a data slicer; just a nice clean signal from a discriminator tap on the radio into a soundcard. That's clearly stated on the UniTrunker wiki page. It might be interesting to have the settings on that page, if indeed UniTrunker can use the data slicer, tho.

The WDM slicer driver is included with UniTrunker. However, it isn't recommended.

Some decoding modes aren't supported.
It only works on Windows 2K and XP (so no Windows 9X or ME).
I've had problems of intermittent BSOD (blue screen of death).
Slicers that are powered by the serial port tend to have the most problems may not work at all.

For these reasons, it's a "use at your own risk" thing for now.
