I tried BOINC when they first made it available. It would not work reliably so I deleted it and went back to the old version. I don't use seti as a screensaver so the graphics are irrevelant. They will eventually get all the bugs worked out.

It is interesting that the frequency of the candidate signal shifts. That could be Frequency Modulation which has real advantages over Amplitude Modulation. Maybe ... More than likely a bad chip in the receiver.

I know the record of work units completed survived the change to BOINC and back to the original version because I did just that. A work unit that is not completed for whatever reason is simply re-assigned to another computer after some set time. Actually, all workunits are assigned to more than one computer for quality control.
