![]() Ham Radio Deluxe is an intuitive and powerful rig control program that I find very nice to use for general QSO's, and even for chasing DX. Rig interface is painless - PSK31 can use Ham Radio Deluxe to tell the radio to transmit, so all you need are audio inputs and outputs! A test with my audio spectrum analyzer showed that the PSK31 signal it generates on my IBM T22 has VERY low distortion if you're careful to stay about 6 dB below clip. So I tried it, and once I had made up the interface cables for the sound card, I was on the air. I found PSK31 Deluxe as part of the Ham Radio Deluxe suite of rig control software (also a winner!) - it was another button on the menu bar. And there's automatic logging of PSK qso's!īut the best part of PSK31 is a vertically oriented "Browser View" of the band that can display (AND COPY!) up to 20 PSK signals simultaneously, with one line devoted to each! There are many memories, so you don't have to type a lot if you don't want to get personal. If you want to transmit on that frequency, simply click on transmit and start typing. Like other PSK31 software, there's a scrolling panaramic view running laterally across the screen that allows you to click on a signal and copy it. In fact, it was so easy and intuitive that I couldn't believe it - I thought there must be something else to it. ![]() This software made it really easy to get my feet wet. I'm an old timer (49 years on the air), but had never operated PSK31.
