Hi Don,

That simple transistor interface offers zero ground loop
isolation between the PC and the rig. I used a dual
optoisolator IC to provide isolation  before switching to
a fancy Rigblaster Pro (which uses optoisolators).
Then, I added a WinKeyer to get away from the
corrupted Morse problem.

Now that I'm having problems with the DVK function and not
finding a cure, I've decided to go with a simple homebrew
passive AF line-level mixer interface using better
transformers than are used in the RB interface.
Thanks to Steve N9OH for trying to help.

vy 73,
Bryan WA7PRC
