what was wrong with the linux ham programs? ham radio traditionally has good support in linux. wine is a windows "emulator" (actually its not, but you can think of it like that for the moment. it is a collection of open source windows compatible libraries) it is available for mepis Here is the page to download the package: http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/otherosfs/wine I posted a few days ago telling you how to download the packages once you have that page. The dependencies should already be installed.
