I run a Timewave PK-232sc+. Besides having an excellent quality sound card, you can run traditional FSK RTTY. If you have the 2 meter module installed, you can run VARA FM and 1200 baud packet for Winlink.
If you have an older PK-232, you can buy the sound card kit which includes USB upgrades to the PK, adds a USB to serial converter, a USB hub, and software to switch the PK between sound card decoding and tradition packet,RTTY, Pactor etc modes. Ham made parts carries the hook up cables. If you want to make your own, I have a schematic for the sound card,FSK, and CW connections on the PK.
