[Elecraft] HamSphere

[BigAlT]

I downloaded the zip file and unzipped it both with Stuffit Expander and with
the terminal method and got a .jar file I could double click. However,
double clicking on it only brings up a blank purple window with the title
info. There are no info boxes or any other way to access the program. I
checked my installation of Java and its fine.
