NUE-PSK Digital Modem   

USB Card Operator’s Manual 

(For use with modem software v1.34 and later) 

 

 

 

The 

NUE-USB  Card

  is  an  optional  low-cost  addition  to  the  NUE-PSK  Digital  modem  that 

increases  the  enjoyment  and  capabilities  of  the  digital  mode  operating  experience.    The  USB 

Card plugs into any NUE-PSK modem to provide the ability to record the receive and transmit 

QSO  text    to  a  removable  USB  flash  memory  device  (“thumb  drive”)  for  archival  and  remote 

printing.  The USB Card also provides a serial connection to a PC, a means to upgrade modem 

software from the thumb drive, and a port for a USB printer. Traces are present on the pc board 

for custom addition of a real-time clock/calendar function ideally used for timestamping QSOs. 

The  modem  software  (v1.33c)  associated  with  this  USB  Card  hardware  release  contains 

improved  keyboard  commands  for  controlling  the  USB  card  functions  and  a  wonderfully-

revamped and consistent set of text editing commands.
