CAT is also useful on many radios were there are many sub-menus in the radios menu system, many of the sub-menu items can be easily changed via the PC. On many HF radios the CAT system is also used to program the memories on the radio, but you would need to use appropriate programming software.

A CAT interface do not revivereceive or transmit any DATA mode, that is the purpose of a DATA interface. Although, both may be used at the same time with correct CAT Equipment.

DATA modes, and getting audio to and from the PC is the function of a DATA interface. A completely different thing but it is easier and more useful when CAT and DATA are used at the same time. Wouldn't it be nice to have an interface that could operate Frequency-shift keying (FSK), Audio FSK (AFSK), (real) Morse Code (CW), with a CAT interface and its own sound card..... (eg. The DigiMaster Pro3).
