Digital for G90?

Post by K9DRP »

Having heard lots of positive reviews, I just picked up a G90. I run mostly CW, but would like to be able to work a little digital. Anyone have a recommendation for a modem with this rig? Signal Link, Digirig, etc. I'm reading that the hookup is a little more involved than with other rigs.

Don,
I don't have a G90, but I've used a digirig successfully with an FT-817 and a (tr)uSDX. According tot heir website, they make cables for the G90.

Turns out the Ham from which I bought the rig included a USB soundcard dongle with the required cable. It works FB! I ordered a CAT control cable so that the software can control the frequency. I have to set it manually until the cable arrives.
