Erik,
I am using a SYBA model SI-PEX50054. It has 2 serial and one parallel.
They range from $10-$30 depending on source,
My 8.1 computer only has PCI-e X1 lane sockets. So I had to buy new
cards, So please read the specs on
whatever you purchase and make sure the sockets are compatible. Your XP
box probably only has PCI sockets,

Hi all.
Last week I upgraded my old shack XP box to 8.1. The migration went
pretty smooth.
But... the only thing not working is RTTY keying. One card is a Sunix
brand (model 4036), the other is a StarTech (model unknown; but
Windows found the proper drivers, or so it said).
Both cards have Windows 8.1 64 bit drivers; which - according to
Microsoft - should work fine. But they don't.
The StarTech makes my PC crash when I try to do RTTY with it; the
Sunix card puts my rig in transmit; but doesn't do the FSK keying. In
fact, I can select either COM port in the software, and - regardless
of whether the cable is hooked up to COM4 or COM5 - the radio goes
into transmit! Weird, to say the least.
So, my question: what are you using on Windows 8.1 that properly works
in RTTY? Clearly my (oldish) cards and their drivers are no good....
Thanks, 73,
Erik - K5WW
