[TriLUG] Ham (packet radio) Application

[ALFRED JOHNSON]

What does DX Spider do that a ton of other Amateur Radio Linux programs  
don't already do?? I would first suggest that he go to Freshmeat  (or  
any other online source for Linux software) where there are a ton of  
Linux amateur radio applications which are free to do just about  
anything you would need for amateur radio work. Several hams have  
looked at those menus and concluded that just about all the necessary  
tools are there. Our only problem is trying to get Icom and the other  
manufacturers to write their software so it can be used by those not  
using WINDOZE. --- Al Johnson KQ4FP 73
