[SOC] For cryin' out loud!

[Rob Matherly]

I solved all the digital modes with the one cord! :^)  I took the audio out from the
sound card and ran it to the audio in of the mic connector.  Using the VOX to key the
rig.

One BIG thing it took me a while to figure out with MMSSTV was the templates.  Every
time I'd try to superimpose one, it'd "erase" my picture.  After a much-needed
looking over of the help files, I found out you need to set a transparent color.
Just right click the pick, tell it to look for a non-used color to use as the
transparent color, and you're all set!  (Of course you all probably knew that already
:^))

I've also had the program loaded for some time now.  I also downloaded a
later version (not home right now and I don't recall the version) within the
last few weeks.

I too have monitored often but have yet to send my first picture (how Second
Class).  I've messed around with some pictures I have (ok, grandkids and
such) putting them into a format suitable for use.  Such things as inserting
CQ SSTV or whatever on the pics.

Guess I haven't played with it enough to find all of the little hidden
secrets.  You do that, Rob.  Find all of the goodies and let us know so we
don't have to go digging so deep.  How does that sound for a deal?  You do
the hard work,  Ok? hehehe.

I'm presuming from your comment on the cord hookup that you're not already
set up for the other digital modes.  If you're set up for such things as
PSK31, you're all set to go on this one.
