I have a Raspberry Pi in a go box with APRS software and a program
called Chirp. Chirp can program a whole slew of different radios (Not
Elecraft) :-(. In Chirp I have files that have all the local repeaters
and can install them as needed. I would love to add Elecraft utilities
to my Pi. Steve kb1chu

Particularly as it’s already been compiled for an X86 under Linux, so all the libraries should be there. I don’t think many of us would worry about spending 25 quid on a little computer to have just to run the utilities and maybe some of the modern digital modes?

To run my N2PK VNA, I have a laptop with a parallel port running WinXP and I think there is still a 386 laptop out in the garage somewhere with Win95, just in case :-) Of course the latter two have no WiFi cards in them to avoid troubles.
