I had VARA FM working with a digirig as the soundcard interface to the radio. Then for no apparent reason the computer stopped passing information through the connection and gave me an error message. I tried new cables and switched the usb port all to no avail. Finally what worked was to delete the original port connections and reinstall as if a new device. This has cleared up my problem. Hope this helps and good luck. I suspect a software update may have been the culprit.

Not sure how this is possible but could use some assistance from anyone who may have some clue as to why this is happening. I did a reboot this morning (as requested by AVG) and the issue seemed to occur sometime after that. Not sure if the reboot is related. I also did additional reboots and restarts with no change. Any ideas would be appreciated.   TIA,   73/161,   Allen R.
