Though soundmodem should be workable, it hasn't been supported in years and it doesn't work all that well. Fortunately, we have an excellent replacement: Direwolf - https://home.comcast.net/~wb2osz/site/ Download 1.1 and read the User Guide. If you doubt my point on Soundmodem not working well, read the appendix of the User Guide that shows the decode counts on soundmodem vs Direwolf and many other HW TNCs even! Ps. Once you get 1.1 working, it's worth noting there is a known annoyance with an overly long TX-TAIL setting with it. The new 1.2Beta version has fixed this. --David KI6ZHD
