[Elecraft] Ham Radio Deluxe: some new features

Tue Dec 2 10:21:07 2003

Pete,

HRD is a marvelous program, a work of art, and interfaces to some of Dave's 
fine programs, but for operating the digital modes, Mixw is more 
useful.  For CAT, it can control everything that can be controlled on the 
K2 by the use of macros.  It also has a half way decent logging function 
and the capability to be customized for the various contests.  However, for 
serious contesting and contest logging, check out N1MM logger (put N1MM in 
your browser search window).  It's price is right, free.  I enjoy using HRD 
occasionally and watching your progress, and would recommend it to anyone 
for a general interest program, but not for PSK31 and that's the only 
digital mode it does.  Some of the features such as satellite I do not 
currently use, but may in the future.  Congratulations on a fine program.

PS,  I am on your list.
