I agree with Skip on this Bonnie, the Signalink interface is a very good digital interface and to write it off as a P.O.S is misinformed, disingenuous, just plain wrong and potentially damaging to a small US ham radio oriented company who manufacture quality products. Just to reiterate I have

Just to add my two cents. I do have a SL-1 that is used only for MT63 and HELL. Having said that I have found no problem with it. Of course they are not ARQ modes. I do use ARQ modes a lot but also have the hardware to operate it. John, W0JAB

Sorry to harp on about this but ALE400 has a baud rate of 50 (20ms length) and the VOX PTT is 28ms plus allowing for say a 12ms delay from a modern rig that is only 40ms total delay on transmit, just 2 symbols. From MultiPSK's help file: In ALE400 it is transmitted 28 symbols, alternately on
