You would be hard-pressed to find a better option than the Paragon. It is a very enjoyable radio and often available at bargain prices, considering its capabilities and performance. I certainly enjoy

I have a 585 Paragon and have used it on CW, SSB, and RTTY. I use a Kantronics KAM that I have had for many years with 3 different rigs to interface with the computer through the computer RS-232 port

No, I haven't experimented with reversing tones (although I have reversed mark/space to copy someone who was operating "backward). Frankly, I am not even certain I have an offset issue. When I check

Good thought. I'll have to dig around and see if I can find the KAM manual and what the Paragon is expecting for a tuned signal. I never had to worry about that before, it just worked, but back when

You are right, I had forgotten that I used a pull-up resistor and the 12vdc jack to allow keying the Paragon via the FSK connections. I also run a small fan when running extended RTTY. If I can shift

The Giehl chip is similar to the standard Paragon control except the number pad switches bands, so entering a direct frequency input requires pressing <enter> before and after the number entry. You'l

Do you have a voice board installed in your Paragon? That board can run the battery down unless a simple fix (adding a diode) is performed. Second, are you sure yours has the charging circuit for the

Congrats on the new radio! I hope you enjoy your Paragon as much as I like mine. About the only thing to check will be the 9v battery. See if the recharging mod has been done and use the appropriate
