Re: FT-200D digital modes
|
Tnx Donald,? he is not new to radio and has been idle for a while, but has asked for help,in getting into digital modes!!? He has asked about it and i will endeavor to get him up and running.?? Myself, i am a voice person only. no digital or cw, no computer interface.? i am not keyboard proficent enough, dexterity is non existent for me, hunt and peck at best! The software does not need to be free (he has the funds), but the most user friendly one would be nice...no sense buying different softwares' to find one he will like!! he has the DMU-2000 to go with it and the 40m u'-tune external active filter unit , which is most likely not needed except for? CW, but i digress at that point!!? he seems to like 40m!! Antenna is the 43 ft. Hygain/MFJ unit. he is HOA bound so has limits on antenna selection !! If you have any other ideas , feel free to let me know. Have a safe and MERRY CHRISTMAS!! 73 TYRONE J. BURNS? cell: 985-687-2139 P.O.B. 442, 24430 Panther Rd.

I don't believe there is any software that covers ALL of the digital modes. You didn't say if the software needed to be free or not. Ham Radio Deluxe has the DM-780 module that covers a lot of different digital modes. It's not free. It does come with multiple tools, including a logger that many like (there are several other popular logging programs, including the N3FJP and N1MM loggers). However, if free is important, you can use multiple programs to achieve the same end, but it may not be as convenient as using one program for most of your digital needs. The most popular program right now seems to be WSJT-X for FT-8 and some other digital modes. There are several programs that cover RTTY. Then there are other digital modes like Olivia. There's going to be an Olivia event on Feb 14, 2023, that will give you some activity to try out that mode with. You will need to determine your friend's needs and decide on which digital modes he or she wants to explore before picking a program. There are many different digital modes, and many programs to choose from.
