[TimeWave-AEA] DSP-599zx version 5.0 upgrade

[Eric Wilson]

I recently read the comments about the PSK for the PK 232 MBX and have the
following questions.  I would like to know what the best way to operate psk
31 with my KNWD TS 2000 and or with my Icom IC 756 would be?  I have a pk
232 mbx that I upgraded, I added the PK 232/DSP kit - Full upgrade AEA item
number A.06228 and paid the price of 150.00.  This was done on 18 May 99 and
I need to get the correct cables to hook it up to my rig.  I am wondering
which rig it would be easier to hook it up to and what else do I need for
PSK 31.  Should I try to use my PK 232 or get the Rigblaster?  I am also
interested in using my pc to send and recieve CW.  Can someone please advise
me what I should do?

Thanks,

Eric  N4HGZ
