Now I know about the permissions problem, I've noticed it decodes well 
at 38wpm.
Not that many can read at that speed, definitely not me :)

Is'nt the delta 66 capable of full duplex ?

It might be foolproof, but not quite proof against me.
Another thing I've found, after loading FFTW Wisdom it now allows two 
failure in TX mode to write to /dev/dsp
before the waterfall goes extra fast and no input signal is seen or 
decoded..
That could be a bug as Hamish suggested

If I can get the permissions sorted, its working, but at the moment only 
if run by root..
