<p dir="ltr">Well thanks for the encouragement all. </p>
<p dir="ltr">It turns out that getting receive to work was as simple as connecting all the cables together and turning it on. Getting it to transmit was another matter. Hours of YouTube videos later and the settings were right and the G90 quirk that line input gain needs to be maxed out. </p>
<p dir="ltr">I didn't call CW, so I didn't show up on the psk reporter, but I completed a QSO with KU4OC. </p>
<p dir="ltr">Thanks!<br>

<p><font size="4" face="Verdana">OK, from what I can see about that
interface it provides both a control interface for freq &
PTT via the 'CIV line' as well as a built-in sound card. The
DE19 should add a new serial port and a new sound card to your
PC when you attach it via USB. You may need to manually install
a driver for the CH342 serial port chip in the interface. Did
the interface come with any discs?</font></p>

<p dir="ltr">Thanks for the offer Paul. I am probably jumping the
gun slightly. I bought the interface so that I could get it
before the deminimus tariff exemption went away. I got it just
in time. I hadn't planned to start playing with it just yet.</p>

<p dir="ltr">I have a Xiegu G90 and I recently bought the DE19

connects via USB. </p>
<p dir="ltr">There are lots of YouTube videos to make the

But tips like the one you shared. Good operating practice.
Do you just pick thing up along the way or is there the WSJT
Bible?</p>
