[NLRS] The Palm / 10Ghz Operation

[billd@2z.net]

Hi Guys
   First, GREAT to see/ visit with several of you yesterday. Got lots of info 
that I needed as I continue to THINK about Wawa or Marathon area 
operations in Aug. WITH BARRY's plans ... all of this may need to be 
reexamined. Too early to know and I continue to research. I also THANK 
those of you that are currently assisting me in this research.
 
   I purchased a Palm M100 and HotSync cradle yesterday at St Cloud. 
After a 2 hr download last night I have Palm Desktop on the main 
hamshack computer and have downloaded BD as will as the MathLib and 
PocketC.

  The M100 only has 2meg of memory and runs an older OS but not sure of 
the Ver yet.

  After the 2hr dialup download for Palm Desktop I am "running". Never 
owned or played with one of these before. Using the Address book for 
Grids, Home distances and bearings as well as phone numbers.

  BD runs fine, I wish it would remember "user's grid" , not going to be fun 
entering the grid from which you are portable FROM every time you use it 
as well as the other stations grid.

   What other programs are worth looking at for portable 10Ghz operation? I 
have a Magellen Etrex GPS that I use as well. I had been using it for 
bearing/ distance and will continue to do that as well.
