[SMCARA] N1MM+ question

Howdy gang,

I thought I'd try to get on tonight for the PVRC Reunion fun and wanted 
to get my log setup in N1MM+. The PVRC Reunion webpage says that there's 
a .udc module available but it's not a part of N1MM, isn't listed in 
their user defined contest page for download and I can't find it on the 
PVRC website anywhere. Do I need a secret handshake? Anyone know where I 
can find this critter?

For those that remember my email some time back about switching to Linux 
Mint I never did get HRD or N1MM to work in Mint, even with Wine, 
WineTricks or Crossover. I finally installed Oracle VM VirtualBox and 
installed a copy of Windows 7. It annoys me because now I'm dividing my 
PC resources when I run the VM but it will have to do. I'm able to run 
N1MM if I want to and now have Evernote installed so I can maintain a 
local copy of my database. Mostly I'm just disappointed that, even after 
all these years in use, Linux is still so poorly supported by software 
companies who have the resources for the spit and polish that homebrew 
programmers usually don't. It leads to a lot of compromising for the end 
user and guarantees that Windoze will always dominate the marketplace. 
*shrugs* On a positive note there is a native TQSL program and CQRLog is 
a very functional general use logging program so I've given up on HRD. I 
left it on my Win7 laptop for future portable use though (which could 
become another Mint installation someday instead). I can't comment on 
CQRLog's performance for rig control because I don't have any of that 
setup yet but the functionality is all there.

So... who's hiding that .udc file and how do I pinch a copy?

Cheers,
