Hi Ted,I ran it in a DOS-prompt window using Win 98 a few times. Depending on 
what was running in the background, it could make for choppy CW.I've never 
tried it in any OS newer than that cuz I assumed it wouldn't even run.These 
days, I keep a DOS 6.22 machine in the shack just for running NA. 
Seeeeeeeeeeeeeya, Joe

Joe,...

As a DOS Based application, there was no 'installer' in
the sense we now use them for windows computers.  The NA.EXE
file in the distribution is a standalone executable,
which needs to be run in a DOS environment.  Most modern
windows computer (especially 64 bit systems) probably
won't know what to do with this program, even if you
try to run it from a Windows 'cmd' prompt.

I do still run my NA files successfully in the
Windows XP DOS environment, but it will likely
not run in later Windows versions,...maybe Vista.

Good luck with your research and 73,  Ted W8KVK Athens OH
