I have already visited this site, but there is only the hf program from
Thomas Sailer (a good program i think, but not that i'm searching.)
But, i've read also the Thomas's page.... and he writes:
Since most HF protocols retain even bit synchronisation over transmission
cycles, HF controllers need a very accurate clock.
The CCIR SITOR specification calls for 20 ppm! The PC environment does
not provide such an accurate clock. The problem however is not clock
stability, at least not if the PC is operated in an office. The problem is
the exact frequency of every PC clock oscillator is not known.
So, if the hamcomm program for DO$ works well... why can't another
program for Linux do the same as well ? :)

Me only ??? Naaaaah.
I have to know too many thecnical informations.... protocols, I/O
input/output.... Naaaaah.
However... if someone is interested... i can help with my poor experience
in C programming to develop a program for de/coding RTTY with simple
interfaces....
I hope to hear about soon.
Excuse me if my English isn't perfect.(i forgot to write it in the
prevoious message :) )
