Glad to hear it, Kevin.

Fldigi isn't complicated, but you do have to choose how you want to control
your rig. I recommend the use of the RigCAT option in Fldigi.  All you need
to do is download the XML file that defines your rig, select the correct
port, and you should be off and running.

Note: You can't do rig control from Aether and Fldigi at the same time.
The first one on will keep control of the port.
