EXCITING NEWS - NAOMI NOW A WINDOWS PROGRAM, AND FREE TO DOWNLOAD
NAOMI, the North American Overlay Mapper has been re-issued as a Windows
program. After much feedback from previous NAOMI users, I have completely
rebuilt the NAOMI map-suite, and integrated it into a Visual Basic shell for
ease of use and full Windows compatibility.
There's more good news: starting with the latest version v1.2, NAOMI is now
available for download completely free of charge. Get a FULLY WORKING copy
of NAOMI on your computer for as long as you wish to keep it. No
nag-screens, no adverts, nothing to go out of date, no need to do anything
else but use and enjoy the best North American Ham Radio Mapping system
currently available.
Here are some of the great NAOMI features:
