Hi Robin

Not Linux but, Michael G7VJR wrote in the CDXC Digest on the Asus Eee PC with Wintest. 
Bob G3PJT used a similar setup in Malta for CC (BERU). 
They certainly help ultra light DxPeditioning.

I wonder if anyone has tried running this sort of logger on a CnMbook
(linux) 7" machine ? (They come in many styles/badges and sell for around
£100)
I recently bought one to "play" with (from a well known High St electronics
shop) for running a simple logger in the car for /p operation ...but really
have not had any success - but then I have not used Linux before either !
