It may be instructive, or more confusing.
There is also the MicroHam interface, which seems to be a great option for the
new USB laden world. See http://www.rttycontesting.com/microham/mk.htm for

> Has anyone heard of/used a Quatech QSP-100 PCMCIA Card? Have the
> ability to buy one, but if I can't do FSK with it in WL, I won't bother.

> Okay, I was wrong..... Guess I was wondering three things.
