Cool. Thanks Dave... A few more questions....
Since it emulates a sound card, it must be AFSK keying so the microphone
gain has to be adjusted for proper level?
>>>Yes its AFSK, but the transmit audio uses a separate path that is not
governed by microphone gain. I adjusted the level using the Windows
Multimedia Mixer.
Is FSK available and does it work?
>>>For FSK transmission, you need an external interface to convert the level
of the FSK data emitted by MMTTY/EXTFSK from a serial port TxD, RTS, or DTR
signal to the FT-7600's RTTY input on ACC-1 pin 1.
Did you compare the "quality" of the decode operation to a computer mounted
high quality sound card? (i.e. SoundBlaster)?
>>>No. I just made a QSO with a European station from the HRO store in Salem
NH to make sure things worked in both directions. You might ask on the Yahoo
IC7600 group:
