I think that I found at least part of the problem with
the triangle file.

When I download it from he
http://www.pcabx.com/technical/reference/
I get a file that is about 4.5 seconds in length. (2.4
MB)

When I download it from he
http://64.41.69.21/technical/reference/
(this is the one you pointed me to, IIRC)
I get a file of about 1.8 seconds (310 KB)

Why is this?

You managed to find an obsolete page that hasn't been
updated since year 2000. You probably found it using a
search engine, and not by following specific
instructions from me.

I just checked goggle and found that every reference to
the pcabx triangle file that I've made on RAO in the
past year (including the past 3 weeks) has always been
to this specific file:

http://64.41.69.21/technical/referen...e-2_1644ds.wav

Note that this is a file that will download as
triangle-2_1644ds.wav, not triangle.wav

If the file you pointed me to is 1.8
seconds, I believe that you owe me an apology for saying
that the file is longer and I lied about it.

That never happened. Google searching of the RAO
archives says that I always pointed you at the
triangle-2 file. You somehow managed to go your own way,
and apparently never followed my specific instructions.


OK, I think that I see what happened. When I clicked on
your link back when we first started discussing this, I
got an error message. So I did what I could to get to
the file. I loaded the address into Safari and shortened
it to 64.41.69.21/technical/reference, because that's
what I could get to work. That took me to the page with
the shorter triangle file.


So that issue seems to be solved. Nothing nefarious.


As they say, why presume malevolvence when simple incompetence suffices.


What was incompetent about what I did?
