    Galaxy Pluto Clarifier Problem

    Galaxy Pluto Clarifier Problem

    ###################### Thanks for reply....Before a delve into reading the link, are the knobs SEPARATE in controlling the T+R?...This link seeming applies to a radio with significantly more bells and whistles than mine...I see no "menu" to speak of.

    RTTY and CW using computer hookup issue

    Ok, so wrong of me to assume and digital signal you put to USB... Yea, some goofy rule to put it to USB... Even if you are on 40m? Put it to USB... Glad you got it figured out. Computer side of stuff.. Also, do you still have that Commodore 64?? If you do.. I want to repair it if it no longer...

    RTTY and CW using computer hookup issue

    Here is part of the dialog that was exchanged with the manufacturer and myself: MANUFACTURER: One last wrinkle, because FLdigi is SSB/USB specific you actually use USB on your radio for transmitting RTTY. MY RESPONSE: *WHAT!?....SET RADIO TO USB?....THIS I GOTTA SEE! * MANUFACTURER: It sounds...

    RTTY and CW using computer hookup issue

    Tomorrow, I will write my findings in better detail...I remember e-mail talking with the manufacturer and I believe that they said I had to send cw in one of the side band modes but, will re-look at my e-mail......The freqs on the Icom 730 display and Yaesu 901 "don't match up" most likely...

    RTTY and CW using computer hookup issue

    Ok... So the audio is not making it out of the computer. CORRECT... When you hooked up some speakers to it and you hit transmit on the program, it was not making any sound and just muted. AS I STATED..... Double check your sound settings in the program. FLDIGI?.....JUST TO BE SURE...
