   I can't believe it took me until Tuesday of this week to discover minimodem: http://www.whence.com/minimodem/

   Sure there are more reliable and higher bandwidth methods to get data between two computers, but I just can't help but have fun with one that just uses sound cards, microphones, and speakers, or even just an audio cable with tip-ring-ring-sleeve connectors on each end.

     @ND3JR elaborate, please... you say using like AFSK modulation via audio/mic between 2 boxes?

     @santiago Yes. That's literally what minimodem does. It doesn't do any of the more advanced modulation techniques like QAM or PSK that you'll find in more ham-oriented software like FLDigi.
