I agree with Bob's method. (KISS) Keep it simple stu..... This time less
equals more. No neeed for interface on Orion 1. Just remember to put all
volume controls or mic level set so you only have to adjust 1 set and don't touch the other controls. Very easy to do under XP. I have Rigblaster nomin
and several I made, but don't use as I don't need. The Orion 1 has all the
controls you need. I use the Assy din plug on back using the TT cable. Lets change the subject just for 8 lines or so. There are several hams just above
3.800 that are on every nite. They were talking and cuttin up. Also they
were all on the same web site. Talking on LSB and a video link on Web with
pictures, broke into segments on the screen looking at each other. One was
talking abt ants for 80 meters. One held up Smith chart he ran. Of course
the pictures of building the ant with new and stronger metal with different
feed line match. Of couse all in color. It was fantastic to me. I've lost
web address but they announce it often. I thought it was neat. W4IV, ROGER, 30 MILES SE OF MUSIC CITY TN AND I can't even play a guitar and can't sang a

Right on! I've used VOX to key the rig with MixW and Fldigi across
many rigs: FT920, IC706, IC7K, Pro3, and a TT Jupiter. Works slick and
easy. Two cables: one from the soundcard to the mic input of the rig;
the other from the rig audio (headphone jack works) to the sound card.
That's it. Save your money!

from the radio and computer and let the VOX handle the keying.

Less parts, less cables = less problems.

Lloyd, what kind of switching are you using for keying your O? i use
MixW and have it send the keying to a COM port. the switch i use is
one
shown in the MixW help file. you can set most any COM port or USB
to COM
port you choose in MixW.
