Leigh, I understand about RS232 for keying the rig and that is a nice feature of Fldigi, however, that doesn't accomplish direct FSK keying which takes us back to the OP's original desire (I think)
As far as cocoaModem using RS232 rig control, I wouldn't really want it to since I have either MLDX or RUMlog connected to my radio and of course can have only one program using the RS232 port. The difference, of course, with Fldigi is it's also the logger but I don't use it as such. Rick K6LE On 2/8/2010, at 9:38 , Leigh L.
