Many of you have asked if it is OK to cross-post this list? I don't mind, but I would like to know where it is going. If you think it should be cross-posted to other USENET groups, please let me know so I can try and manage these. We don't want to have any duplication or our welcome will be wore out! Those of you that can tell me about ANY of these programs compatibility with System 7 would be appreciated! I am going to be adding a System 7 compatability section to EACH description in future releases. If the application is KNOWN to execute properly under System 7, the System 7 anotation will be placed as the last line of the product description. More clarification on levels of System 7 compatibility in the future editions... but this is a start! Some of the information in this list was gleaned from flyers supplied by the software vendors, or in some cases from reviews in amateur radio publications or the README files included with the archive. Some of the information has not been verified for a long time; please check with the vendors/authors for the latest product specs, pricing, etc. NEW/CHANGES: I am continuing to add more version numbers so that our users will know if they have the most current release. Thanks to those that have already sent them in... I'll accept all corrections! The newest e-mail I have received indicates a new product soon to be released for the Mac which has been in the DOS world for awhile... the Automatic Position Reporting System (APRS) is currently being beta'd. It is expected to be released soon. The ftp site at The World is no longer. It has been moved to oak.oakland.edu. Scott-WY1Z is maintaining these file as the Librarian of the Boston Amateur Radio Club. Look in the following path: /pub/hamradio/mac. If you'd like to archive your software.files here, please contact Scott at wy1z@neu.edu. Finally we are starting to see soem advances in Callbook data for the Mac. Mark Sproul, author of Packet Tracker, has completely revised the HAMCALL application that first appeared in the Oct 92 issue of the Buckmaster HamCall CD-ROM. This one is very nice. Well done Mark! RT Systems in Huntsville, AL has included a Mac interface for their SAM database. No information on this one just yet... but some Mac users will be getting information to me soon. Check at the bottom of this list for more information on ftp'able sites carrying Amateur Radio software. The ARRL ListServer is also carrying the latest version of this list... in case you loose this one! *** Collections *** <M…
