I'll follow you there. I do better on 40m anyhow. Pick a frequency.

Well I am on 7192.61 LSB with my ears peaked to hear
Too much QRM at that frequency here.
Well It's bad over here but I can live with it. I think I am going to go to digital and then go watch Marty Stuart at 0100Z.
I'm on PSK31 @ 7037.15
I just got back from the store. Took longer than needed because of the YL. Now she wants me to cook.
See y'all in about an hour.
Got all tuned up on 40m PSK and then was summoned by the XYL. Might be an hour for so before I can get back to the radio shack. Need to find my little electric heater, though--it's cool (53°) and rainy here tonight.
On Edit: Got a 30-minute reprieve, am calling CQ on 7037.15 PSK31 right now (01:10z)
Or an electric pad? I can't do PSK right now but if anyone has any down and dirty ideas on how to hook up a Corsair to the computer for PSK I'm all ears. I have a rough idea to use the the input - output on the back and key it by hand but I only have a choice between usb/lsb/cw and the VOX may work sans manual keying. Don't know. I also don't know if the filter selections on the front also work on the outgoing signal or not.
Any info greatly "preesh-yated."
The VOX should work well for digital, USB is "standard". The Ten Tec might call it "reversed"... use that on 40, 80, and 160. My old Omni D would do PSK, but would drift a little with temperature. Just call CQ on the dummy load a few times to get things warmed up a bit from cold.
I'm at work for another three hours... HF is in the car, 40 and 20 meter hamsticks.
Damn sweepstakes this weekend can't find a clear freq on 40
