Message-ID: <1994Jan12.185510.11803@krk.fi> Sender: usenet@krk.fi Nntp-Posting-Host: krksun.krk.fi Organization: Radio Club of Kauniainen (OH2NRG) X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL0] Date: Wed, 12 Jan 1994 18:55:10 GMT OK, pals. Here's a list of Ham related Mac software. The files are in a .HQX format, so just thorw me some mail and I'll send you the files you want. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- DX Map 1.1 The following is from a help field that can be accessed from within the stack. This stack requires the version of Hypercard to be 2.0 or greater. This stack enables amateur radio operators to find the location, bearing, and other information for the 'DXCC' countries of the world. It also displays the day and night portions of the globe dynamically. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- MacDOVE MacDOVE is a simple FORTRAN program for decoding or converting recorded DOVE telemetry packets into engineering units on a Macintosh 512K, Plus, SE, SE/30, or II-series computer. Note that MacDOVE does not decode packets directly from a TNC but from a file of packets previously recorded. Both the source code and the application are available from the address below. The present version of MacDOVE does not use any of the special window/menu/mouse features of the Mac and so the source code should be compatible with other machines. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- MorseTrainer US-1.0.1b20 MorseTrainer is a program for learning and training Morse code. This is the first translated version of the program which originally was developed and localized for Sweden. The program itself can be considered a final version of v1.0.1 but the translation is probably not perfect, hence a beta-release instead of final-release. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- SunClock ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- PacketTracker For the network manager and BBS operator, PacketTracker provides extensive insight to the operation of the local network and the problems such as excessive retries on a path. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- SPARKS-II Morse trainer type. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- WORLDTIME.sea 1) It tells you what time it is in other cities, taking into account Daylight Saving Time/Summer Time. 2) It automatically resets your computer's clock at the beginning and end of Daylight Saving Time/Summer Time. 3) It allows you to change the location of your computer as it is stored in your computer's memory and reset the clock appropriately. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- MORSE CODE TUTOR ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Morse Mania This program was written as a practice program for people already familiar with the International Morse Code. It allows the user to practice copying Morse code at various speeds and at different audio pitches. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- MorseMaster This program can read any TEXT file, but the interval of carriage returns should be less than 256 characters to send correctly. You can open large file, but normally the latter part is truncated (If it is too large, an alert box appears). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Grid This Macintosh program (MacBinary format) converts between coordinates (longitude, latitude in degress, minutes, seconds) and the grid square locator used by radio amateurs, and vice versa. The old European QTH locator system is supported. The distance and heading between two points on earth can be calculated. The program will automatically recognize the coordinate system used: longitude/latitude, worldwide grid square locator or European QTH locator. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- OrbiTrack 2.1b14 Satellite Tracking Program ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ___ //// ________________________________________________________________ |--00 Kristoffer H{ggstr|m (Kauniainen, Finland) C ^ E-Mail: tofi@krk.fi ___ \ ~/ ________________________________________________________________ Nobody knows who's side he was on It's a risk that you take in no mans land Nobody knows what made him decide To run for freedom and to certain suicide -Marillion
