Introduction

RigExpert Plus is an electronic device designed to operate phone, CW, and
digital modes using personal computer and transceiver. Previously, a TNC or
sound card was needed for this purpose, along with lots of cables, occupying
computer sound card and serial ports. All of this is not needed anymore.
Following up-to-date technology, USB interface is chosen to connect RigExpert
Plus to a computer. No additional interface circuit needed for transceiver
connection.

RigExpert Plus combines:

Transceiver audio interface for operating digital modes, voice recording
and playback – a totally compatible sound card for any ham radio software.

CAT (Computer Aided Transceiver) system, which controls transceiver
frequency, mode and other functions by computer, supporting various models
of transceivers.

FSK operation to get crystal-clear RTTY signal.

Built-in electronic CW keyer (using the popular WINKEY version 10 chip).

Imagine a bulk of different
black boxes with lamps and switches, a dozen of cables hanging down the
table. This gloomy picture is well-known for a ham who prefers
computer-assisted contesting or simply wants to check out digital modes.
He spends a lot of money buying all this stuff, and then a lot of aspirin
is needed to soften his headache while hooking it up to transceiver and
computer and trying to start up the whole system...

We have done our best to
make RigExpert Plus a breakthrough into the new era. Along with
world-beater MixW software, it is a reconsideration of style a ham radio
operator's workplace may be organized.

For a novice, it is a first
ever chance to make sure operating digital modes is really easy. It lets
experienced DX-men and contestmen enjoy the power of modern technology.
Portable operators will appreciate its simplicity and reliability. At
last, new horizons are open for experimenters.

RigExpert Plus is fully
compatible with all existing radio amateur software, providing easy setup
and use. Also, it includes many useful features such as USB output for
connecting computer mouse or other USB devices, squelch input for EchoLink
software and even optical S/PDIF connectors for modern transceivers such
as IC-7800.

RigExpert Plus features:

Along with MixW software, operates
phone, CW, PSK31, RTTY, Packet, AMTOR(FEC), MFSK, THROB, MT63,
Hellschreiber, SSTV, receives PACTOR and fax images - all in one! No TNC
required!

Any other soundcard software may be
used: tested with DigiPan, MMTTY, EchoLink, etc.

Windows 98/ME/2000/XP/2003 compatible.

Makes free computer soundcard and COM
ports previously used for operating digital modes.
