Tabletop View

The Tabletop mode allows you to decode multiple PSK-31 signals at the same time. This is useful to find a station sending out CQ. On the right hand side of the display is the audio frequency. Highlight on of the signal, double click on it and it will then be in Xtrv 1 box and sets your Xcvr 1 area so you will be on the right frequency for a reply.

Called Station's - Call & Name

Configuration Screen

The Configuration Screen is where you set up the sound card Inputs / Outputs to the program. Be sure and check the different channels (L or R). One will probably give you a stronger signal than the other. Also you will have to click the upper left corner 'State' and make sure it is "Active" if not you will not get any input to the program and everything is blank.

It uses some codes to insert data, example; %C is the Callsign of the other station and %c is your callsign. Code will also turn on the transceiver to Transmit Mode %[tx] to send the Macro, and then switch to Receive Mode %[rx].
