Lee, I'll tell you my expirience. I use a mofified for multiband operation Softrock RxTx 6.2, with the addition of an Si570. The program of my choice is PowerSDR-SR40 from Guido PE1NNZ. It can control the Si570 via two lines from the LPT port and have a range from 160m through 6m. Results are more than what I was expecting.
