Fumbling with the Aether logging program during the recent CQ WW WPX (CW) convinced me that I need to bite the bullet and get a program that will do rig control as well as logging. Posts on this reflector suggest that fldigi is widely used, and it does seem to be usable with a Mac OS. So I downloaded the Users Manual. It comprises 428 pages of dense computer jargon, including a TOC of 18 pages, beginning with instructions about configuring a sound card. Two questions. First, I operate 100% CW and I don¹t care at all for machine decoding of CW received though I do want the program to key my transmissions using info from the keyboard log entry - call signs, automatic S/N update, other exchange, etc.. Do I even need a sound card to use the fldigi program? Second, is there a Cliff¹s Notes version of the operating guide accessible by computer-speak tyros? Tnx,
