I am not a regular user of CSS software but it looks like the CD contains "Radio Operations Center" which is a native Windows app and actually quite a decent program that allows you full control of an MMC with Pactor/Amtor/Packet and plugins for PSK31, SSTV, MT63 etc.
ROC is $99 on its own for either a Timewave/AEA MMC or Kantronics MMC so if you have both MMCs it would be good value. I guess you pay another $40 for the older software. I recently tested Packratt for dos on this XP machine and it worked perfectly in a dos window. Maybe not great software by todays standards but if you pick up a used PK-232 on eBay for a few bucks it will work fine. MixW can also work with MMC/TNC & sound card modes but requires detailed configuration to make it work fully. ROC is definitely easier to get up and running than adding Pactor, Amtor, G-TOR modes to MixW by hand. 73 Sholto K7TMG --- In digitalradio@yahoogroups.com, "Michael Hatzakis Jr MD" <li...@...> wrote: > > Appears to me a sarcastic comment reflecting that they are selling and > repackaging all their very old, DOS based software products, nothing > obviously new, for quite a lot of money.
