The modes I enjoy the most are the sound card modes
like PSK31, MT63, Feld Hellscheiber, SSTV, MFSK16, Throb etc.

The sound card on your computer is like a TNC Modem
so, you don't need to buy an expensive TNC to operate the sound card programs

Here is a Link for schematics for a sound card interface that you will
 need for sound card modes


This is the Link for interface information

Very Complete construction interface manuel suitable for Club Projects

Here is another link for interface info and purchase



PSK31 is (phase shift keying) and the bandwidth is only 31hz wide
which creates a better signal-to-noise ratio. Which means you can use less power to communicate compared to other modes

PSK31 Official Web site where you find more information about
this interesting mode and some links to PSK31 programs

2m 144.144 abt


Please always use the correct sideband for the Digi modes it has been that way for
A very long time. LSB 10 mhz and below USB 14 mhz and above on the radio. And for simplicity always use USB decode for MFSK16 and 8. It has been that way for a long time now. So, don't get people confused.
