Jeff,
I don't have 9600 baud TX, but I have used the MixW virtual TNC to copy the BBS and digi with WiSP and a VU5K. Looks just like 25 years ago when I was using a hardware TNC. Should work witi the any rig if you have the right soundcard interfacing. I have already have a copy of MixW, but there is a 30 demo, last time I looked.
73s,
Alan WA4SCA

Hi Alan! Very good, before I moved forward it's good to see someone getting it working, it assures me that I'm not wasting my time. I have a registered copy of MixW, but also think I left the registration key in Florida. I also have a DSP-2232, and a Symek TNC3S in Florida. I think the Symek is a 1200/9600 baud unit, but the 2232 can run 9600/9600 baud, I think. This will be fun getting them running again with WiSP :-).
How come your uplink is limited to 1k2?

Jeff,
Flex never delivered on the promised 9600 baud capability for the VU5K. KE9NS has gotten the RX side working very well, but there is little documentation, and so far not on the TX side. Work still in progress, but as I am the only one who seems to want it, very understandably not a high priority. :)
Yes, the DSP-2232, which I still have, works very well at 9600 baud. I used to use it with the FT-847 on the KitSATs and AO-51 when it was in packet mode.

Thanks for the good info Alan. On what you told me I'm going to persue this farther with my IC-9100. I have MixW running, (I downloaded a copy of the new version, installed it and good old MixW still has me registered online from 7 years ago! I just called Martha for a code for WiSP, the two codes she gave me, one for win 3.1 the other for win95 ?? didn't work. How did you get your copy of WiSP running?

Jeff,
I used the one from WIN95, and it worked fine on my WIN7 and WIN10 machines. It does write that and other information to the registry, so you will probably need to run as an Administrator.
