Chris,
Also, for some of us the thing has stability problems. I can't run it on
the computer I normally use for WSPR, as it hogs all resources and
eventually crashes. It does run on the other machine, but then you can't
shut the computer off without pulling the plug. A week ago, I loaded the
current version and had the same issues. The various other programs I
use for LF/MF work all work flawlessly.
John, W1TAG
