RIGblaster pro:   

Our new RIGblaster pro is a big hit. We have finally caught up on the demand and have them in stock with hundreds on the air. We invite you to read the April 2003 QST RIGblaster pro review. QST editor, Steve Ford, WB8IMY gave us a great review.

TheRIGblaster pro has many features the other RIGblasters do not:

• Built in rig control interface with single serial port operation.
• Microphone speech processing and recording.
• Automatic computer speaker muting.
• Automatic plug in second headset mic. jack.
• Full front panel LED indicators including an audio level indicator.
• Front panel audio drive control.
• Separate independent CW and FSK keying outputs.

CD-ROM Version 6.0:   

We just released version 6.0 of our CD-ROM.  Almost all of the programs from our previous version were updated and we have added lots of new programs especially for the RIGblaster pro.   These added programs include applications such as rig control and transmit speech processing.
