ham radio deluxe is not a PSK31 program to my knowledge but I've spent 
considerable time the last 3 weekends playing with digipan and PSK31 with 
jaws and after getting used to what's going on and using the jaws curser to 
find the buttons to call CQ and the TX/RX button and stuff, I have a lot of 
fun with it. I'd bet someone could make scripts for it and you can read the 
screen if you do it right. The words come in 1 letter at a time, but what I 
do is check every few seconds and read what's there. It can make some info a 
little redundant but honestly, it's not all that bad when you get used to 
it. I'm actually at the point where I want to get a better interface so I 
can leave the mic plugged in. Right now I'm using the old rigblaster nomic I 
used for my old echolink simplex link when I had it up but I want to get the 
rigblaster plus so I don't have to unplug the mic all the time and stuff. I 
can put this in my go kit, the 706 has 2 mic inputs and a lot of people use 
them as second rigs that double as their data radios on PSK31 it seems. I 
guess it's backup voice, primary data and that makes sense, when I get the 
second dipole up and a little $$$ if I can find an old 706, original maybe, 
I might think about that but I"m not sure. I probably won't use it enough. 
Anyway, to answer your question, it's very doable. I've been told you can do 
it with digitalk too but I never had much luck separating sound cards with 
that. That you will need, an external synth or 2 soundcards. The second 
soundcard option is cheap these days, a good USB card which is what I use 
for PSK31 is plenty. I also use that to remote control my HF rig as the 
audio hookup and that works great too.
