With the check partials, super check partials, packet cluster, radio interface
cw interface, DVK interface and everything else CT does I cannot imagine
a Windows 95 version being better, cheaper or faster.  Pick any one."

Paul,
        We use CT in a multi-task environment, but have had no problems in
win 3.1 or Win95. We use V9.26 in multi-set-ups, and all computers have not
only CT, but Geoclock and Miniprop as well. A quick Alt-Tab moves the screen
to either program for checking propagation or grey line without disabling CT
and without using another computer.
        My only problem with ditching DOS logging programs is that it will
disable many hams who exist on 386 machines which cost $50 at best and work
like a champ for these applications. 
        We actually have used a 386/DOS, 2 486 computers running win3.1 and
a 486 Win95 machine running CT , using the serial network, without
problem..(knock on wood.)

        See y'all this weekend!
