[Ham-Mac] Mac Interface devices for PSK

[Richard Kriss]

Walker, W2WJO:  Please post your experience with the RigBlaster. It looked
like a very nice box but the company refused to discuss using it with a Mac
and I was having a hard time figuring out how to key my TS-570D(G).

I purchased the Tigertronics SignaLink SL-1+ and it has been doing a great
job and the interface was easy.  The neat feature is their unique Auto-PTT
that detects audio coming from the computer and does the PTT for you.  It
worked great and I have enjoyed some PSK31 QSO's;  however, RTTY is still my
favorite mode.

I am now looking for a 13-Pin DIN A/B Switch so I can go back and forth
between the SL-1+ and the PK-232.

Speaking of rhe PK-232 anybody on the list tried the Timewave PK-232/PSK
mod?  I checked and it looked pretty neat but was really confusing on how
the keyed the transmitter with some special PC program.  They did not have a
Mac version of the keying program so I gave up.

Anybody transmitting with the BuxCom or MFJ interface boxes?
