acarsd was the first by several months but has taken a long time to
develop the windows version as the original was written for Linux

anad 2 is the copy  of acarsd it has been rushed out to get money in
before the acarsd freeware is out

when you log to Internet in anad 2 all you are doing is connecting to
the acarsd system

many however miffed about this so have set servers not to work on anad2
why should we provide what will be a free service and airnav collect
money for it  is the thinking

sadly many have turned there servers off all together for the moment
because of this
