Hello all,

I'm about to spring for a new laptop for general use and in particular for the N3FJP logging program, and as the contest CW interface for a Winkeyer and radio control.  I have been using Windows XP with no issues.  The question is; is there a problem with Windows 8 vs. Windows 7 operating system?  I tend to think that Windows 7 is less problematic for these applications.   Any input appreciated!

Thanks much,


73 de W4DL   Mike

I have had good luck with Windows 7, for both N1MM and N3FJP.
They have also worked FB on Vista and XP
Have not tried Windows 8
