[Lowfer] TAG in PSKAM10 Mode

[John Andrews]

Ed,

The only trouble with the transverter approach is with frequency stability.
If you do it right, it should certainly work in this application.

Remember that this application only requires translating a very small audio
bandwidth up to RF. For those who prefer to roll their own, and not tie up
the ham rig, there are the usual two approaches: filter or phasing. Lyle,
Dex and possibly others have done filter rigs by using tuned circuit filters
with the sound card output set to a fairly high audio frequency like 5 kHz.
I built a phasing exciter, and stick with my usual 800 Hz. The audio phase
shift can be done fairly simply as you aren't concerned with a 2-3 kHz wide
bandpass.

Either way, it would be fun to see more of the guys set up to put sound card
generated audio on the air.
