The Digirig is a soundcard. It converts the analog signals from your radio into sounds that are transmitted and converted back on the receiving end. It can work with programs like Winlink for email, FLDigi for digital messaging, and VarAC for chat. The Digirig is small, allows a one-wire connection to your radio, and does hardware P-T-T so you don't have to use VOX. It does not add DMR, Fusion, or D-Star to an analog radio.?
