Given the DSP horsepower of the current generation computing platforms
(dual core gigahertz plus CPUs) and the 32 bit DSPs used in the
current crop of radios there is absolutely no reason I can see to use
an outboard DSP for RTTY. On the Pro3 with a program like MMTTY or
cocoaModem you certainly won't see any improvement with an extra box
in-line. I retired my external DSP boxes (yeah, the ones I designed)
some time back.
