Got more than one transceiver..? Now you can operate the sound card modes (PSK31, SSTV, Packet, MT63, RTTY, eQSO/EchoLink, APRS, and more) without buying additional interfaces. You can easily change from the HF transceiver to your VHF/UHF transceiver by simply unplugging the HF cable from the RASCAL Mark V and inserting another cable for a different transceiver. Do them all, PSK31, SSTV, Packet, MT63, RTTY, eQSO, Echo Link, APRS, and more, with different transceivers using only one RASCALmkV. RASCAL mark V is wired, tested, and ready to ship!
