Logging ... Are you still looking for the ultimate logging program? Well then, go no further. What you need is DX4WIN. Take a look for yourself. I have tried or used most of the logging programs available and in my opinion, DX4WIN is simply the best. It is very quick and filled with tons of features that are very easy to use.

DX4WIN...The way logging programs should be!

RTTY and SSTV ... Want to try out RTTY and SSTV. What you need is MMTTY and MMSSTV. These are FULL FEATURED freeware software packages for both sending and receiving RTTY and SSTV without any fancy hardware. Your computer sound card is used. To be able to transmit, a simple interface is needed. All of the parts are available from your local Radio Shack dealer or use the RIGblaster interface as I do.
