[Dx4win] PSK31 Menu Problem

Sat, 17 Jan 2004 14:12:39 -0500

Mel, it looks like the problem is solved.  Apparently, "Use CW Control" 
is for VOX operation and the program seeks and finds the proper COM port 
automatically.  It also helped to turn up the VOX gain, which I had all 
the way down because I never use VOX.  The conflict with the manual is 
what got me into trouble.

I had used the program for PSK31 in the past, but I never used an 
interface.  I just used direct connections between the Xcvr and sound card.

Everything seems OK now.

Thanks for your assistance.

73, Joe
