Hello group members and readers, Here is Guenter DD9ZO from Germany. Some of you know me as a betatester and translator of EasyPal. I stopped this work in the end of august 2008 due to my view of the new internet-features like automatic ftp-upload vs. copyright etc. Now with the new version (14.Nov.2008) of EasyPal there is a new feature build in. Remote control of TX-time for a file over the world-wide web. Well maybe next step ist remote control of searching on the HDD for a TX-File and remote control for the PTT on the transmitter. As I said in a message before, this is no longer my job and I do not agree with this kind of features in a hamradio program. Here is the E-Mail that I wrote today to Erik Sundstrup VK4AES: ------------------------------------------------------ Hello Erik, downloaded the 14.Nov.2008 EasyPal-version from KC1CS webpage. Installed it and read the update information. Then deinstalled it. It is the next step in the wrong way from hamradio to internet communication! Please set my name, callsign and picture out of the slide-show in the about-menue. Due to only a few users left here in the German-speaking aerea of Europe, you also can cancel the German GUI in your program, then there is more space for some new www-features in the program. What's your next features? Remote keying of the transmitter and automatic search for tx-pictures on the harddisc via the world-wide-web? Let us all communicate via cellphone now, only the display shows the callsign. Why using TX and RX, hundred of watts energy and long wires for antennas, it is so easy to do the job on landline and www... So Erik I'm a old fashiond man, thinking that hamradio is a hobby that has a lot to do with radio over the air, not via internetserver! So let me out and delete all my personalities in your project! I no longer agree with this new features of the internet program EasyPal any more. Vy. 73 de Guenter DD9ZO -------------------------------------------------------- So I will say also Goodbye to all group-members and readers here in this group, I think there is no need for me to post in this group until a new digital-sstv program is on the run, featuring hamradio things and not feeding "pimp my webpage" internet junkies. Vy. 73 de Guenter DD9ZO.
