[TenTec] OT somewhat

Hi John,

You'll probably get as many answers as there are people, since a lot of 
this boils down to personal preference.  Here's my take.

I'm using a US Interface Navigator, which I like a lot.  It's easy to 
switch between radios and does a good job on CW too.  As for digital software, 
I've tried HRD and MixW.  They both work OK, but the whole idea of a 
one-size-fits-all software package turns me off.  I'd rather use  specialized 
software for each mode.

My favorite digital mode is RTTY, and I keep coming back to MMTTY.  It does 
a good job on FSK and it's easy to use.  I don't do much PSK, but Digipan 
fills my needs there.  Then there's JT65 in its various (and constantly 
changing) versions.  You'll need specialized sofware for it, which forunately is 
free (as are MMTTY and Digipan).  Just one guy's opinion.
