Ron....

Remember, its a hobby that some people make a few dollars at.  These
so-called software developers for ham radio purposes are not making a
fortune.  They are making a few bucks.  But nothing of any real dollars.
Thats's why you don't see Microsoft putting out MSContest or MSDX or MSRTTY
or MSPacket.

Long live DOS...if it hadn't of been here...Windows wouldn't be.  That's
why I keep a spark generator out in the shed
