Hi Lowell,

It's a free download from:

http://mmhamsoft.amateur-radio.ca/mmtty/

No TNC needed.   Uses soundcard to decode RTTY.   It can TX either AFSK 
using the soundcard, or true FSK if your rig allows.   You will need proper 
cables and perhaps some sort of  interface depending on your rig and what 
you are trying to do.
