Kptc - a new KDE terminal programm for the SCS PTC-II
by Lars Schnake 26 Mar '01

26 Mar '01

Hello, Since the begining of this year, I am writing a new KDE2 application for using and configurating the PTC-II ( www.scs-ptc.com ). The development is not completed yet, but I think it is already a useable software. I would be pleased, if someone take a look and drop me a note about his first impression. Criticism and hints are important for further development. The current version is Kptc - 0.1. There is no RPM yet, but installing from source should not cause any trouble. Download it here: ftp://ftp1.sourceforge.net/pub/sourceforge/kptc Install it as usual : # tar xfvz kptc-0.1 # cd kptc-0.1 # ./configure # make # make install Additionally, you need QT 2.2 or newer and the KDE2 libs. By the way: There is still a lot to do. To bring this work on faster, I can need somekind of help. If you are interested and like to support this project, please join me. Depending on your interests and skills you can introduce yourself in one of the following open tasks: - testing and reporting bugs / wishes - writing a user manual ( html ) - developing a project home page ( html ) - drawing icons and logos - translations - developing new features, several things are outstanding ( KDE, C++ ) Regards Lars DL3YFC -- ______________________________________________________________________ Lars Schnake [DL3YFC] lschnak(a)suse.de

Yes - You are right, sorry to say. But I still belive that when hams comes to the point, where they wish function instead of flashy screens, they will find LINUX good. More and more hams like to set up unantended communication-systems, such as digipeaters, remoutly transmittersaites etz, and in thoose aplications LINUX is outstanding. We will put LINUX in our clubs computer, because we will share data between different applications as voiceBox, packet BBS, APRS e.t.z, AND also do e LAN between members and the cluvlocation ( a 68 meter high tower!)

Hello This is just an email to find out the activities on this maillist, as Im new on it. Im a ham since 30 years ago Im running packet/AX-25 since 10 years ago. Now I started to learn LINUX/Suse in order to use it together with amateurradio. The first thing I will try to work with is as an server in APRS, Automatic Position Reporting System. So now - Are there any out there working with similar things, and if, what? 73s de Göran/SM5HIH

PSK-31
by joe lerch 07 Mar '01

07 Mar '01

I have been reading a lot about PSK-31 and; I think, digipan for windows. Is there a linux alternative that has all the features of digipan? One of the latest issues of QST talks about a kit for PSK-31 on 80 meters, once again they mention needing the windows software. Is anyone using a linus alternative, I don't do windows at all, not even a little bit and hate to start buying windows software this late in the game. joe

Great Stefan! And in the meantime I suggest we put an Cc: to suse-ham-e(a)suse.com when we answer a mail on the list. Hopfully the list will be a little more active in that way. It must be because Suse and LINUX is to good to not be active. 73s de Göran SM5HIH Stefan König wrote: > Göran Blumenthal wrote: > > > > Hello > > As I am new on this Suse-list I am not quite shure, but it seems that by > > default if You answer on a message received from the list, the answer > > gos to the sender, not to the list.
