I use the TIgertronics SL-1+ which doesn't use USB, it has a built in PTT circuit and uses the audio direct from the computer sound card. It takes some twiddling with the settings to get it working, but it has worked well for me. It just connects to the sound card headphone out/microphone in jacks, so no need to worry about it needing its own device driver. I use it with my Kenwood TS140S and it works great!

@RedStickHam HI, thanks. Another good interface. Randy

uh, that tigertronics device is awesome, but will they work in unix like operating systems? such as mac or linux? i have vista but i rarely use it as i find linux to me more stable.

I don't know, send an email to Tigertronics. Randy

Randy, use TeamViewer you won't need to log in just keep software running on home pc and have the ID and Password written down, then run the same software on your laptop, type in ID and Password and it works pretty well, no registrations needed

Hi Randy, This may sound like a strange question!

Can these interfaces be used with APRS as well? As I am rying to setup APRS with my computer.

Any response gratefully recieved!!!
