DXLab's WinWarbler has user programable command lines that can be executed when changing modes. I use them to set the specific data mode and also to send the PC command to set the power level I want. For example when selecting PSK31 it sends the command to the radio to select data-a mode, shifts the FC for me and sets power for 40W. 73 Greg AB7R
