Since about 15 years I´m also
playing around with digital modes.
All started with my old Apple IIe computer and an homemade AFSK-converter.
With this simple setup I was able to work RTTY, both on HF and VHF.
Next step, some years later, was the Kantronics KAM multimode controller,
still working with the IIe, later with an IBM XT clone. This setup was
able to run RTTY, Paket and Amtor. With the KAM and an IBM N31sx Notebook
running under DOS 6.22, I also did most of the operating during the
DXpeditions.
Time changes, still have the KAM
running for the 1.2k packet link to the DX-Cluster, but nowadays I´m
running Windows 2000 together with the MIXW 2.06 software and an soundcard
interface which opend the world to a lot of more digital modes.
If you want to have a look at this
software, here´s the link:

At the moment I enjoy operating
the digital modes using a Dell Notebook, sitting in the livingroom and
talking to the XYL. Read more about the Interface-Solutions. |
Since operating this style, there are much less arguments with the XYL about spending to much time in the shack ;-)
