Right, and I've long promoted that concept. BUT -- I've recently been comparing several (five so far) outboard A/D converters, four models that connect to the computer via USB, on that uses Firewire, and I've found that all of them result in noticeably more reliable decoding of RTTY and JT65 signals, especially weaker signals. I use MMTTY with N1MM for RTTY contesting, and MMTTY with DXKeeper for general operating. I use AFSK and VOX. As K6DGW has observed, as long as you take reasonable care to get levels right, it's just as clean and reliable as FSK, and the hook up is really simple. 73, Jim K9YC ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
