[CQ-Contest] Contest Software for Chromebook

[David Gilbert]

ChatGPT says that the most straightforward way to do what your friend 
wants to do is to install a full Linux on the Chromebook (can be done 
via a USB stick) and use something like N1MM+ (which can be run under 
Linux), assuming his Chromebook is new enough to have a usable USB port 
for the rig control.

ChatGPT also says, though, that Chromebooks are notoriously RF noisy and 
the setup may require ferrites on all the cables.

Just a thought ...

Apparently there are web-based loggers out there as an alternative, but 
not necessarily with rig control.
