I use a Byterunner PCI-410HSP , 4 COM's plus 1LPT. I have NO problem
generating direct FSK (SO2R even) using MMTTY plus Writelog and DX4WIN. I
run WIN98SE on an 800MHZ ASUS P-III motherboard, as an operating system (
I did have problems until I downloaded an updated set of drivers form their
WEBsite...( I can't speak for other operating systems...the secret for the
most part seems to be in the drivers)
I also have very good success with SiiG cards I have a Siig PCI-Expander 4S
(4 COMs) . The folks at SiiG also showed me how to go into the Registry and
renumber the COM ports from the defaults that Windows wants to assign them.
Both SiiG and Byterunner have above average tech support overall in my
experince. You just can't expect them to solve the problem the day before
the contest 8^) !!
