For situations like that, I would recommend using Autohotkeys, where you can define a AHK file that could turn off the wireless, then start PSDR and at the conclusion of PSDR re-enable the wireless. I am using it for a lot of setups, especially people who want to use DDUtil in various combinations (like with N1MM for contesting, DXBase for dx;ing, fldigi for digi work, etc.). 73
