To my understanding, it's not the size of the card, but which specific chipset it uses. I have 4 cards now, all SimpleTech. The 16mb card that came with the Repeater works fine, as does the first 128MB card I bought. The second 128MB card works ok for mono and non-strenuous use (loop storage), but will occasionally give a SLOW CFC if you try to do stereo or whatever. I just got a new 256MB last week and haven't had a chance to fully exercise it yet, but initial tests look positive (formats, records in stereo, reverse, etc). > in the repeater manual, it tells you what it means when the cfc light is >green > and what it means when it's red. mine is amber most of the time.... >anyone? Sorry, I don't know that one. I may have seen it, but I just thought it was red. I don't actually look at the thing that much when I'm using it. Greg __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
