Neal: I like the idea of being able to connect to multiple clusters, with reconnect. Also, it would be a useful feature if the internet spot window could be set up to filter spots from a particular band. I also like the idea of an integrated bandmap display

Hi Peter I already have written a program with 95% of AR User capability plus some extra stuff like a band map (currently sell it as Spot for OS X, since I promised Lee I wouldn't sell it for Windows) so I will be putting it into DXBase so you will have that functionality in 2010. 73 Neal Campbell Abroham Neal Software www.dxbase.com www.abrohamnealsoftware.com www.sdrsystems.com (540) 242 0911 Amateur Radio: K3NC Blog: http://www.abrohamnealsoftware.com/blog/ DXBase bug reports: email to ca...@dxbase.fogbugz.com Abroham Neal forums: http:/www.abrohamnealsoftware.com/community/ DX Cluster: dxc.k3nc.com port 23 On Sun, Oct 11, 2009 at 10:58 PM, Peter Dougherty <w2...@verizon.net> wrote: > Neal, I would probably keep the VHF in there as an option although I agree > it's a dying technology as people get more 'net connected. > > What I might suggest is see if Lee, VE7CC is interested in allowing his AR > User software to be distributed as part of the installer with DX Base.
