I told my friend that I'd ask in here and see what you all have to say about
it. Myself, I like the look and I'd love to be able to decode those noises I
here, personally- I think the price is a little steep- if I remember right,
they have 'raised' the price another $10.00 compared to a couple years back.

Thanks :-)

Myself, I would just go software, and let the computer be the "box". I'm
not sure what all that will decode, "I assume CW, RTTY, PSK31, etc..."
You can get free software on the web that will do the same thing. For
CW,RTTY, PSK31, etc, I use "Hamscope". I bet it works as well as the MFJ
box...For SSTV I use MMSSTV. For WESAT I use wxsat.exe. Myself, I
wouldn't waste the money on the MFJ unit. I bet it would do much you
can't do with free software. BTW, once you are set up for sound card
use, you can also run many other related programs. IE: I run spectralab
as a spectrum analyser. I have a few DSP programs. Have recorder
programs with VOX, etc..Almost unlimited.. MK
