Re: [TenTec] Peg/Jupiter contesting software

Thanks Duane. It's good to know that at least one contesting program will 
work on the Jupiter. I guess you can control a lot of the radio features 
from the pod and not worry about having the Jupiter's screen running in the 
foreground.
I was looking at the W3EWL software for the Jupiter and it appears to have 
built in contest software but EWL seems to have gone belly up. He doesn't 
answer Email either. Then there is the Callsign software which has enough 
verbiage on their website to confuse almost anyone. If these guys would just 
give us the facts it would sure eliminate the confusion.
