Not tried that particular radio simulation but have used and still do from time to time CQ100 which is very realistic.
I only tend to use this when propagation is nil and when using it doesn't take long to forget you are using your pc instead of a radio. I know some people don't like using it but it can have it's advantages.
I'll pay whatever i think it's worth...:-)

At time of my last post server was up and I was listening to the various stations just same as you would using a radio reciever on these bands even the static and weak signals are there the stations all used correct calling ect.
the server is down at 2344 I have no idea if this happens a lot as today is my first try at using it .

Ps dont know when you will see this as I still have to get my posts checked before they are showen .....wish powers that be would by now make me a member :(

Hamsphere now has the 11m band no rigs,twigs,boots,cold shacks,muppets,propagation or ofcom to worry about you can even switch the qrm off :lol:
But is it radio?

Virustotal is reporting that this program is infected with a keylogger.
I've twittered the developer to see what he says.
I'd hang on before installing this.

Ive got McAfee anti virus nothing reported from it ....prob some code within the program seems same as a keylogger also ask Virus total for information on this as well as developer.
