SCAMP was developed using the RDFT protocol, which in itself is GPLand comes from Linux. The author indicated several years ago that he would release SCAMP's protocol as GPL. He has not done this. Partly, I think because of time constraints and also because of keeping things proprietary and not willing to share.
I have never seen such negative thinking in amateur radio is all the years I have been involved since first licensed in 1963. It used to be that hams were more than happy to share new ideas and others would build upon those ideas and for the most part, most hams enjoyed that progression. This seems much less common with computers and software, even when they are directly associated with ham radio. My hope is that as we see more GPL and open software, and the last few years have almost been explosive with this software, we will see this happen in amateur radio as well. 73, Rick, KV9U Rein Couperus wrote: >> The SCAMP busy detector has been around for several years. >> >> > > Is this available for Linux?
