Got more than one transceiver? Now you can operate the sound card modes without buying additional interfaces.  Simply change from your HF transceiver to the VHF/UHF transceiver by unplugging the HF cable and inserting a different transceiver cable. By using transformer isolation for the transmit and Receive audio paths, we prevent ground loop coupling, and reduce the chance of RF feedback into the PC sound card (squeals, hum, etc).  To further reduce RF feedback and RF ingress into the Tx or Rx sound card audio, we install a large (molded) ferrite core over the RASCAL to sound card audio I/O cable(s). The end result is clean, clear, audio, reproduction on-the-air.  An added benefit of these preventive measures is the reduction of IMD.  RASCAL GLKits  are in-stock, ready to ship!

CBLMDIN BUX NOTICE: Throughout our web pages, you'll see references to the 6 pin Mini DIN. This is the latest attempt by the ISO 9002 committee, to establish a "standard" for 1200 and 9600 baud I/O with PTT. If your radio has this jack as an I/O, this is the port to use for the digital modes, as it enables leaving your microphone connected. If your transceiver supports this 6 pin Mini DIN I/O, then consider using our cable model, "CBL MDIN" with the RASCAL GLX.  By using this jack you've enabled simultaneous use of the digital modes and voice operation.  (some transceivers require "menu selection" to activate this I/O).

UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL:   Read this now !

  • When operating PSK31, SSTV, RTTY, etc using your PC sound card;  READ close and understand these digital operating rules.

  •  You should always set the RASCAL and SoundCard gain (transmit) controls of your transceiver at 50% or less than half its rated power output.  

  • Most HF transceivers are NOT rated for 100% duty cycle in key-down modes.  PSK31, SSTV, & RTTY are KEY DOWN modes.   I've learned this lesson long ago... the hard way.   These settings may change a small amount as you move from one band to another.

When operating PSK31, SSTV, or RTTY/FSK on the HF bands:

  • Don't use the audio speech processor, turn it OFF.

  • Don't drive your transceiver into ALC action.  

  • Don't run your transceiver at full RF output power, adjust output power to 50% or less of its rated power output.

The HF PSK31 frequencies are as follows:
160 meters - 1.807
80 meters - 3.580
40 meters - 7.070
30 meters - 10.140
 20 meters - 14.070
 Beginners, Start Here.
15 meters - 21.070
10 meters - 28.120

Operation of PSK31 is typically in USB mode, thus the actual operating frequencies will range from the lower frequency, upward by three (3) kHz.  In theory, this means that you can plunk a hundred, 31 Hz,  PSK31 signals into the same spectrum as one SSB signal might occupy.

RASCAL/MIC Switch for transceivers without an accessory jack.  EZ switch'n between MIC and RASCAL, Just Flip the switch.  It's great when operating SSTV, and modes requiring both voice and digital interaction.  The 5 pin DIN at "A" plugs into the RASCAL I/O jack, the Screw-On connector at "B" connects to the radio mic jack.  The 3.5mm (1/8") plug at "D" plugs into the (Ext Spkr) "Y" connector (included), and the Radio Microphone connects to the MIC jack at "C".  Overall length is nine (9') feet.
