How many use digital TV with their radio. EasyPal in particular.
Easy Pal is a free download if anyone is interested.
It uses the sound card in the computer with an interface so one
can tx.

Have tried sstv but not digital tv. There is a Yahoo group called 'digsstv' that you may find interesting. Will also have to try EasyPal. Do they operate at the same freq's as sstv? I have taken a small portable sw radio w/ssb and plugged the ear phone jack into my mike jack on the laptop and got some pretty good sstv pics. Should work with EasyPal also.

The digital is usualy run on different freqs. than the anolog tv. It can be
down loaded free. I use a rigblaster plus here. Forty meters digital freq. is
7173.0 or 7178.0, depending class of licence. This is where I found most of the
activity.

I have the software but have yet to use it. I'm not quite into video.

I also use Ham-Scope and/or Digipan for digital text modes.

This stuff is getting to be fun. (Truly) I can tell you that hooking a computer to the radio using an interface I designed and built... Kind of felt like 1st contact all over again!
