Mike, I looked at their website - Looked like it was $300+ dollars!! ? Did
I miss something? That makes the Rocketports look cheap! HI

Nobody's mentioned ByteRunner yet - Do they have a USB-serial? I'll look
tonight. I've posted before about problems with their PCI card, but I
thought I remembered that their ISA card was OK in general and OK for FSK as
well. Maybe they also have a suitable USB-serial adaptor...
And Mike - QSL's in the mail today! Wanna try for 160M?? :-)
