[Elecraft] Subject: Computers In The Shack

[david Moes]

Just one running for now  3.6ghz  quad core 8gb.   yea I do a little 
light gaming too.   I have six club computers stored for field day and 
other contests.  the week before field day it looks like mission 
control  down here as I set up and test all six (five plus one backup) 
connected to available club radios with N1MM and network running.

soon to add one for linking a repeater.  probably an old dell running 
linux.
