Digi-Master USB multi connect with CAT - Excellent Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
Great interface, very small and easy to use. Simple installation for USB only laptop, small size and good value for money. Compact size for combined CAT and isolated audio interface.

Neil was very quick (within minutes) to refund paypal when incorrect item ordered. After ordering the correct item, it arrived the next day.

Works great with Ham Radio Delux, and if you change your rig you can just buy a different interconnect cable.

Would highly recommend this product to anyone.

Great Value Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
Great product and a reasonable price. Ordered it and it was here very fast to the state of Washington. I had an extra long run to make from my computer to near the top of my rack. Had to put and extension from the computer to the interface cable and was worried about getting RFI. No problems at all with it. It works as advertised. I run Ham Radio Deluxe and Logger32 with it. In both cases the programs fired right up and ran perfectly. I would highly recommend this interface especial at the price. See my web page at www.w3oz.com . Go to the shack photos and look at the rack just to see how long the run was with no problems even with the AL-1500 running legal limit.

Excellent CIV Interface Time Owned: more than 12 months.
I have had one of Neil's CIV for over a year now, and I cannot recommended the product and Neil to you enough. The interface was originally bought for use with an IC-718 and now is used with MY IC-7400.

Neil's Customer service when I purchased the unit was second to none. He even repaired it when I mangled it foc. The interface has been fault less and works with every Han program I've thrown at it.

Buy one you will not regret it

10 out of 10! Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
Well, I made a few bob on eBay of late and decided for once to actually 'buy' a piece of kit rather than make it (l-a-z-y eh...)

I bought both the CAT interface and the Soundcard interface from Neil and am very pleased. The Soundcard interface is noticeably cheaper than the various RigBlaster & Signal-Link interfaces yet maintains a similar degree of electrical isolation and compatibility. I would strongly recommend you purchase the deluxe version with the Com port PTT as not many rigs seem to have VOX avail on their data sockets. In any event using VOX with a Soundcard interface in my book really demands a separate sound card unless you happy to announce to the world and his dog that 'You have New Mail'!!!

Neil's after-sales service is 100% too, I ordered the wrong interface and he was happy to change it no questions asked turning it around the same day.

The CAT interface works flawlessly with my FT-840, doesn't require a separate power supply like some interfaces and is a proper surface mount board, not just a couple transistors glued in to a D shell.

The icing on the cake of course is 'made in England'...

Never moneies better expenses, happily connected to portable IBM of which 2 with converter usb PS ham radio deluxe: so free so good

It does it all! Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
Got one for my ts-850 and ft-100D. All features on screen. Works with radio shak USB-2 to rs-232 adaptor.

CD has just about every rig on it, that has an rs-232.

Worth every cent. They prewire the connectors for your rig free of charge.

I want to run my ts-850, ft-100, and ten tec pegasus all at the same time. I will have to see if this is do-able.





The software pakage is a blast!

Solid Construction ... Great Value Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I purchased the Yaesu and Ten-Tec interface cables and both work flawlessly. Connectors are good quality and construction is first-rate. Would recommend highly as an alternative to the OEM versions which cost much more or in the case of the Ten Tec CI-V interface, is not available anymore from Ten Tec.

I am very very pleased Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
After much looking around I saw this product on the eham reviews site. It doesn't seem to be advertised anywhere. After emailing Neil with some questions I followed his reccomendation and bought the audio interface and the cat control cable. They arrived 2 days later. To set up was more or less plug and play for my Yaesu FT-897. I have just finished making contact with a couple of European stations and am delighted to be heard. I am very pleased with the cost and service, I would reccomend this product which is supplied at a great price.
