Hi Dave,
I am currently using a Rascal GLX and I can definitively tell you that
when plugged into the ACC1 port of my Icom 756Pro3 that it does do FSK
not just AFSK. I use the same cable that a 746 would use if I recall
correctly.
I am pretty sure that the earlier Rascal model that I had a few

If you have a need to connect two ports together, whatever the usage,
they will do so. In my case, it has saved wasting 4 hardware ports and
associated cables.

I am sure it will be similar to the pent up demand we had when the

Because VHF and up is less compelling than daily occurence of longer

the same for the 746 and 756 series.
You should go to:

Hi Gang!
I am fairly new here to this group and have been reading some of the posts. I
would like to know if anyone here is using a older rig like mine, a Yaesu
FT-101 Z and running PSK31 mode, and what kind of interface they are using. I
have seen several schematics for homemade interfaces
I have a limited amount of articles on the PK-232 on my website. It has
to do with adjusting the filters for 170HZ and making the shift to 170
from the old packet 200HZ. There is an article on hooking it up to my
TS-850S using FSK.
Just maybe you want to take a look.

requiring about 30 watts for 100% copy. CW was woeful - about
