[TenTec] Pegasus questions

[Jim FitzSimons]

I use N4PY software and I am very happy with it. I do keyboard CW and psk31
using mixw software with N4PY. I also use paddles for QSK CW with N4PY. I
have writelog software and others, but I never tried callsign. I would like 
to try it. How do I get callsign? I do some SWL, like WEFAX using SEATTY.

> N4PY or Callsign software for my "new" Pegasus?  Whaddya think?

 

Craig, it all depends on your computer and whether you find bells and
whistles a bother.  The N4PY software will work well on about anything that
boots, and has plenty of features but stays away from the fancy stuff.
Callsign Software's HSE is excellent, has more bells and whistles than N4PY,
and is a fine addition for SWL'ing with a Pegasus, but really is hard to use
on an old and slow PC.  But both are good, and both keep getting better.

 

I recommend N4PY's software for general ham use, but you might not like his
subscription-style payment system.  Got both packages here, and get more use
on the ham bands out of N4PY software just because it's more intuitive with
the old T-T software front panel design.
