The Ham Radio Deluxe suite of programs contains the following =
components:

Ham Radio Deluxe - a CAT control program for your radio
PSK31 Deluxe - a sophisticated PSK31 program which includes =
SuperBrowser.
SuperBrowser allows you to monitor up to 40 (!) QSOs at a time - the =
main
restriction being the available processor's speed.
Mapper - an amateur radio mapping program which can not only be used for
making your own maps, but which can capture and display Maidenhead =
Locator
info  from the PSK31 Deluxe screen.

Ham Radio Deluxe also supports speech announcements and alarms, but you =
will
have to have Microsoft's TTS files installed on your computer. You will =
need
to visit the Microsoft website to download and install a total of about =
8MB
(in two files) for this option if the files are not already installed. =
The
URLs are:

 http://www.microsoft.com/reader/downloads/pc.asp for the Microsoft =
Reader

and

 http://www.microsoft.com/reader/downloads/tts.asp  for the =
Text-to-speech
module

We advise the use of WinXP or Win2000, but many of our beta-testers are
using Win98 or Win98se, and there's one poor benighted soul using Win95 =
(NOT
recommended!)

Anyone wanting to use this software is invited to join the Ham Radio =
Deluxe
discussion group at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ham-radio-deluxe/ =
where
you will find a friendly and helpful bunch of people to help you with =
any
problems. The group is moderated, and querulants and other sad =
individuals
are kept in check - only happy smiling faces are permitted here, y'know =
;-)

The company of those seeking the truth is infinitely to be preferred
