Great Website for PSK31!

A few months ago I purchased a Singalink USB and when I set it up I just never could get it to transmit the signal.  It was activating the PTT but my TS-2000 was monitoring the Mic not the sound from the computer.  After I was able to spend a little more time researching I determined that Ham Radio Deluxe was set up incorrectly.  If any of you are having similar issue, in Digital Master click on the Program Options and then Select PTT.  Mine was initially on Via Ham Radio Deluxe.  Once i changed it to None (via sound card PTT or radio VOX) it started working like a charm.  As I called CQ i did not initially get a response so you wonder if you signal is getting out.  While searching the web I came across pskreporter.info.  Just click on map view and search for your call sign.  As you can see below my signal was heard all over the US.  What a great website.
