Aether is a ham radio logging application for Mac OS X. Aether includes tools to quickly and easily log QSOs while on the air, as well as organize, search and track your QSOs later. Aether was designed for Mac OS X, and has the same kind of clean, intuitive, friendly interface you've come to expect on the Mac. Some of the useful features that Aether provides include:

* Complete LoTW and eQSL.cc integration
* Awards tracking
* ADIF, Cabrillo export/import
* Serial/USB Rig Control
* Automatic callbook lookup including support for QRZ.com subscriptions and HamQTH.com
* Automatic notification of previous QSOs
* Powerful address and QSL info label printing
* Google Maps and Google Earth integration
* Distance and beam heading calculation
* cocoaModem 2.0 and fldigi integration
* Instant Search
* Spotlight, Mail, Address Book, AppleScript and VoiceOver support
* Much more

Aether requires Mac OS X 10.4.11 or later and a Mac with a G4, G5 or Intel processor. The free version of Aether is fully featured except for a 30 QSO limit for logs. The full version of Aether, priced at $39, removes this limit. Aether is available at http://www.aetherlog.com or in Apple's Mac App Store at http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/aether/id404629109?mt=12.

Thanks and 73,
