Hi Bill, I was looking at the FT-920 manual aand it seems like you have to set the mode to DATA-USB when using the data jack. There are some other settings after that that I didn't really follow since I've never had my hands on that radio. See pages 55 and 56 of the manual and maybe it will

[digitalradio] Direct driving IF

The FlexRadio products are driven from a sound card. This uses a low frequency IF and quadrature mixing for image rejection. The HPSDR from TAPR converts directly to and from RF using a high-speed DAC and ADC. At this point it produces only a few milliwatts and needs an external power amlifier.

Hello Jerry, In the last version of Multipsk (4.13), there is a SdR interface which can RX/TX all transmissions between -24 to 24 KHz for a standard sound card and up to +/- 92 KHz for some hight quality sound cards. So you can drive the IF signal from Multipsk (for digital modes). 73 Patrick

Welcome Bob. DM780 will perform well for you with the most popular modes, Multipsk will add a few more modes. Take a look at FLDIGI also. All three will give you the most used modes. In addition to RTTY and PSK31, the most common other modes are Feld-Hell Olivia MFSK16 I have heard over 200
