Getting my new OpenPCD working

[Power, Mike]

Just to follow up, I switched from front USB to back USB and that made
most of the intermittency of the OpenPCD go away.  It also detected my
ISO 14443-A cards just fine.  I still noticed a couple times it failed
to detect the OpenPCD so as of today I switched to a full powered USB
hub and I see no problems.

The only other problem I am having at the moment I have an American
Express card that it won't detect.  I have another RF device that can
detect the American Express but none of my 14443-A cards.  I suspect
that the American Express is 14443-B but without the OpenPCD picking it
up and telling me I have no way to determine this.  

Do you know why the OpenPDC isn't picking up the American Express card
when I scan?

Please verify that your USB Port provides enough power to supply OpenPCD

by using an self powered USB hub with a dedicated power supply.

Warmest regards,
