Thanks Joe,
It seems every year a few of us try to get this function functional and it never quite makes it for everyone.

This thread gives me deja vu with an older thread. I think the noise levels have improved for the x2 and x4 but have yet to see a good set of data.

I regret not having written a good encoder user manual last year when we disected the getRate() routine in this long thread where JoeHersh spilled the secrets of the internals of how this funcion is really coded. Anyway, the info is still there if you can get by a lot of my sidetracks. Unfortunately, I've forgotten half of stuff so I would have to wade through it again too....maybe someday.
