Seriously, a lot of people get started in digital radio with Digipan and PSK31 on Windows. Or do RTTY with MMTTY and Windows. Then many move on to multimode programs. I've been talking to lots of hams lately who use HRD Ham Radio Deluxe with DM780. Haven't tried it yet myself. I've been using MultiPSK, which has a pretty intimidating user interface but does an awful lot of modes if you want to try them all. I still occasionally talk to people using MixW. Then there is fldigi, which is one of my personal favorites, mainly because it does a lot of modes and works under Linux and Windows both. I prefer Linux but keep Windows around so I can run the software that doesn't work under Linux. Jim W6JVE
