Ham Radio Digital Modes with Puppy

Easy download and install from W1HKJ here:

http://www.w1hkj.com/Fldigi.html

Worked the first time I tried under Puppy 2.14

Now I have to run a cable from my laptop to the radio so I may try it out live
and on the air!

Thank you to David Freese!

I have been looking for HAM programs for my Puppy since I get it up and running.

Interesting to find some ham radio Puppy users.

There's a real shortage of ham radio software for Linux. Has anyone tried using Wine & WIndows based software?

Contest loggers, rig control software, propagation software etc. There's a lot of shareware based programmes in Windows, but very little on Linux.

Thanks for the link to the ham software. I had already downloaded 2.15CE, and like it even better than 2.14.

Since then, I have added Open Office, and the digi files for the PSK program. I haven't tried them on the air, yet, but will as soon as I can get some time to mess with the cables to connect to my TS-2000.

I will probably re-do my puppy CD just to add the ham stuff, only.

BTW, are there any CW reading programs in Linux?

Good luck in sunspot cycle 24, peaking in 2012. Get your stuff ready, now.

I have cwtrainer compiled for puppy. I can post it up after I finish the script I'm working on. It's on another machine and I have to go dig it up.

It's not a package, it's just the binary (only one file).

It requires QT libs, you can grab them with petmanager.

Just untar and run it (might need to set it executable).

we better be careful, we could end up with a whole new group, HamPuppies, K1STS/NNN0HRA. been using the fldigipup2.14 for a while now and loved it. i accidentally upgraded to 2.15CE, and running flawless so far. we need a pup master to start doin some ham pup'n. i am looking for xistar.pup, next on the list will be winlink2000 convert to puplink2000, lol...also forget Wine, virtualbox is a free open source version of VM Ware, GET THAT THING .pup'ed
