George, Before you become discouraged, let me clue you in on a fairly common, yet silly, problem. Make sure your sound card is set up and calibrated so that you are receiving and then transmitting on the same frequency. I have seen a number of locals have this problem of actually operating split and not know it. What will happen is that the station you are answering will not hear you as you won't be on his frequency. My AC97 in my laptop has that problem, for instance. Have a look and best of luck.

I have never worked digital modes before. It sounded very easy in the manual. So I listened to a few PSK31 stations. Wow you have to read fast! I hear CQ's and try to reply. No luck! Try a few CQ's myself. No replies. I must be doing something wrong. I don't have any trouble making contacts on CW. I tried both 40 and 20 meters.
