Overview. R-A135
RASCAL model
al135 is used with the ALINCO DR-135 Transceivers which have Dsub (DB9) data
jack. Be sure the DR-135 transceiver is in the 1200 baud mode as used
with 1200 baud data I/O. PC Sound Card configured for
PSK31, WJST, MFSK, Packet and most all sound card modes, including
SSTV |
Overview. R-1AL
RASCAL model 1-AL is used with the
ALINCO HF, VHF, and UHF Transceivers which have 8 pin (screw-on) microphone
connectors and 3.5mm external speaker jacks. PC Sound Card configured for
PSK31 similar, MFSK and Packet modes. ALINCO models: DX-70, DX-77,
ALD-24T, ALR-22HT, ALR-72T, DR-110, DR-112, DR-119, DR-1200, DR-430, DR-510,

R-AL6A
For ALINCO
models: DX-70, DR-119, DR-1200
A PSK31 interface for the ALINCO DX-70. This interface
does not use the 3.5mm external speaker jack. Instead, receive audio is
extracted from the ''fixed'' level (Detector Output) AF that is available
from pin six of the ALINCO DX-70, screw-on, 8 pin MIC port.
(Note; this interface also works with other ALINCO, and some Kenwood
transceivers with receive audio at MIC jack, pin 6.)

By using this RASCAL�� interface and a program like MMTTY, you are able to use the FSK feature built into your ICOM 706 and IC 718 for RTTY. The advantage of FSK over AFSK, is the use of the radio's built-in narrow FSK & CW filters. Some transceivers do not enable use of these filters in the LSB or USB modes. When radios that do not permit the filters to be used on LSB mode, RTTY only can operate using the sometimes distorted and noisy (AFSK) sound that comes from the PC sound card. The FSK and CW filters operate within the IF if the transceiver and therefore are able to shape the bandpass for a cleaner and superior processed signal. *SSTV

R-990-RYR YAESU FT-990 Transceivers PSK31/SSTV with FSK option.
It has all the features of the other
RASCAL��
PSK31, SSTV etc Interfaces, however,
this
RASCAL��
has an added TxData circuit that enables the use of FSK.
By using this
RASCAL��
interface and a program like MMTTY, you are able to use the FSK
feature built into your FT-990 or 1000MP for RTTY. The advantage of FSK
over AFSK, is the use of the radio's built-in narrow FSK & CW filters.
Some transceivers do not enable use of these filters in the LSB or USB
modes. When radios that do not permit the filters to be used on LSB
mode, RTTY only can operate using the sometimes distorted and noisy (AFSK)
sound that comes from the PC sound card. The FSK and CW filters operate
within the IF if the transceiver and therefore are able to shape the
bandpass for a cleaner and superior processed signal. This
interface utilizes transformer coupling between the PC Sound Card
line in/line out, and your transceiver. Automatic PTT is via serial
comport and software control.
