Yep, he's right. After too many ye3ars with an interface, this works best. Many programs will do the job. I like N1MM

Absolutely none!  Save your money.  Run RS-232 from computer to Omni.  Run 
audio-in and out from Omni to computer sound card.  Build a one-transistor 
CW interface. 

Many people who buy the supposed plug-and-play interfaces end up pulling 
their hair out with both hardware and software configuration problems. 

You're a ham.   Do it yourself.  Save time.  Save money.  Gain 
satisfaction.  Have more fun.
