SSB suggestions - Please

[quote=jonlgauthier]You can receive NOAA weather fax using just a standard SW SSB receiver and the appropriate fax software for your laptop. Just plug in a jumper cable from the headphone out jack on the radio to the audio line in on your laptop. The software uses the DSP functionality of your sound card to implement a virtual weatherfax receiver...

Jon could you please explain the software for my laptop needed as well as the operation of this process to get teh weatherfax from the ICF-2010 receiver - Thanks Andy (aschoenb@netzero.net)

You better think twice about using globalstar. They have lots of problems right now with coverage and satellites failing before replacements can be put up. Lots of chatter on this from this years Bahamas cruisers.
