It depends upon which specific Rascal model as there are several. Some
will provide a USB connection to the computer for PTT and an audio
interface. They do not appear to have the CI-V control so you would need
additional hardware and another COM port for that if you wish to have
more advanced

Seriously, some times it is best to start something

Sometimes an individual or two or three determines

If you're willing to switch logging applications, DXLab interoperates
with MixW, and includes a digital mode application called WinWarbler
that will control your Pactor TNC.
DXLab is free, and available via www.dxlabsuite.com .

I've read your comments with interest. I own IC-706.

I am aware that one does not need a Rascal , but since he has one I
want to get him on the air with it.
I think what you are saying is that with his Icom 706 MKII and his
Rascal he is all set, and can do rig control in addition to basic
functions.
I will find out which of his two rigs he

I do not think the Rascal supports CAT control for any radio. I have an older
model here and it does not. It only consist of a PTT curcuit and the audio
cables and transformers. I bought mine a few years ago to get on Echolink using
a 2 meter FM rig.

I have read somewhere that folks have been unable
to measure any discernible difference between
external and internal sound cards. The article/post
that I read stated that one would intuitively guess
that an external sound card would reduce noise but

Hello Chas
Wayne in Georgia WD4LYV.
I will be happy to communicate with you as I am running rascals here.
You do not need the CI-V to operate the digital modes. This is for rig control
not digital input. I will be happy to reply more if the person needs my input..

I'm no Riblaster Pro expert but both Logger32 and MixW allow for
control of an external TNC. What problems have you encountered ?

So, is the Rascal all that one would need if the radio was a Icom and

person needs. The Rascal web page does not actually describe what is

The CI-V port needs an interface between it and typically a computer COM
port. This can be a fairly simple interface with a few transistors.
Since COM ports are becoming obsolete, having a third part USB to CI-V
interface is nice to have, but there are none that I would consider to

Chas,
You've got it right. To do digital communications via software and a
computer sound card, you need three basic connections (regardless of
what radio you are using, though I suppose one of those could be
optional). Setting aside the desirability to in some way isolate your
computer and

Hi all. I currently work soundcard modes through a RigBlaster PRO and
mainly MixW 2. No problem here and everything works fine.
Doing rig control and logging via EasyLog program through the
RigBlaster com port. Works fine.
One problem is that it is an either or situation - either MixW or t
