DIY USB Sound Interface for Old Radios Made Easy! #shorts
What if it was easy to connect your old radios? This board turns radios with a 6-pin connector into a USB sound interface. No more breadboards or complicated circuits needed!
🚀 Turn your old radios into digital-mode powerhouses! In this video, I show you the TOADs DI board and the new DI6 daughter board — a plug-and-play sound card interface that connects your radio to your computer over USB-C.
With just one board, you can run:
• Winlink 📡
• APRS 🚗
• FT8 🌐
• ANY digital mode you want
No more struggling with cables, custom wiring, or expensive interfaces — the TOADs DI6 makes it simple. (Of course if you like that kinda thing, the TOADs DI is for you!)
📌 In this video, I’ll show you:
• What the DI6 is and how it works
• How to connect it to your radio & PC
• Live demo of digital modes in action
• Why it might be the easiest way to bring your rig into the modern digital world
Tom from Tom’s Radio Room Show discusses shortwave radio with us and gives us some tips and tricks on how to get started with the shortwave listening (SWL) hobby.
