Thank you for the informative video. I'm not licensed yet, but I'm reading the ARRL study guide when time allows. I picked up Baofeng 5rv5 and an Icom ID 5100-A to start with. I'm thinking that I'll probably add an Icom IC-7100 to round out my mobile with HF capability as well. I grew up with a base station CB with an Antron 99 on a Rohn tower running very illegally talking to my dad who was a trucker back in the 80s and 90s. It worked for our purposes well but I didn't realize as a kid that what we were doing was illegal. I've always enjoyed the radio and now at 40 years old my interest has sparked back into it once again. Living in Southeast GA I think this will be a smart move with our frequent hurricane evacuations. My wife and I each run a Ranger RCI-2950 to keep comms between vehicles in evacuation situations. (That's what we ran on the base station too but with a lot of juice behind it.) I'm looking forward to taking my test and getting on the air. Take care.

Thanks Telescopeman. Used have a Grundig worldreceiver in the seventies, gave it away, but with your first package I can pick up shortwave-listening again, plus I'm gonna download WSJTX and figure out that works. Good work, this video.

Thanks so much for these excellent tips! Great to see another ham who's interested in astronomy as well. :-)

I have been wanting a clock that had both times, but thanks to you, I don't have to go buy one.

Hi there! I'm looking at getting my amateur radio license, and for being on my computer all the time this really helps! I appreciate the videos you post!

Great stuff Joe. Also recommend "YAAC", Yet Another APRS Client. Free, currently in Beta release. Good way to learn about APRS. Lots of features for the APRS community. I use it a lot.

if you haven't heard, the "AIM Window" on Netlogger, (and everything else using AIM) goes down in a few months, if it isn't already down. America Online is retiring AIM, and not replacing the servers.

Thanks for making this, Joe. Really interesting video with good information for new operators and even old hands. 73, GM4JPZ

Great job! I saw some cool apps that I’ve never seen before. Thank you.

In to scopes and ham radio both here too. My channel is primarily scopes at this point but may add some radio stuff to it soon

This was a decent video, but it was unfortunate that it had no links.

Great job! I enjoy watching your progress ..... Thanks 😂😂

Thanks a lot Sir for sharing 👌 and you have a good one 73s👍

All the links are at the bottom of comments section. 73

The links are at the bottom of the comments section just scroll to the bottom, Jo hadn’t pinned his comment links to the top of the comments. RIP.

Just found your site and subscribed. Thanks for the information in this video. Looks like good stuff to have. 73 AC7NK

Hamclock? But Windows can already display multiple times, no extras needed.

Just starting...very helpful!!

Good video, but it would be helpful if you put the titles up on the screen to help find the page.

Thanks for sharing have a great day73

Joe, in your video you stated you would post the links, where are they?? 73s...

de N2JAI Bill, Thank you Joe for you videos.

Very interesting thanks for sharing 73s de George 9H1AA

Links are at the bottom of the comments below.

Very good.. Good job tanks you yc9job..ocean 150

links to site would be nice.. can not find elb view 30 it comes up with a paid software at 135 bucks. i think not..

I would add CHIRP for programming some of the handitalkies. And its free for both Mac and pc.

Very useful

Good job

Great experience. Regards.

Very Good, Thanks

He doesn't list the apps in the description below the video. I see a bunch on your screen @1:59 that I could use for my setup. I was able to find a few on the list by searching and matching the icons, etc. Some are obsolete or not supported and some are upgraded.

Thank for the links. Very helpful. 73 - K7GYB

very good...(from KB5UUY)

Not one link

Thanks for the info K2CSX

Telescopeman thanks for the video but two comments. #! you are 2min 50 into the video before we know what any one of the software packages is. that is 85% of the video itself.#2 I will google for all of these but why not put links to the software packages in your description so anyone viewing does not have to have the extra step of googling for that software?

Thank you for sharing these programs. The first one, Ham clock I dont find usefull at all really. I and most other amatuers I know already have their computer clock set on UTC. If one is commited enough to Ham radio one stops using local time and go UTC fully. Second program could be very usefull if one is a SWL/DX listener which I am not. However I am going to download it and use it for my sailboat. Nice to hear a human voice on the oceans. Third one, FL digi I never heard about. There is a huge amount of psk31 softwares, Ill look into this one. Nowadays I prefer FT8. I will download it and give it a go. Fourth one, this was something new. Not much of a DX net user but I sure can see the benefit of this program if one likes the DX nets. Fifth one, WSJT-X is awesome. Using it daily. Cant keep wonder what they are going to come up with next. 73

I have an unopened SDR and went to download a free free software package. I chose one and it consistently refuse to let me download it. It gives me to a 140 item. Can u tell us a good free SDR. Software pack. Any help of suggestion would be appreciated.

What contact logger to you use ? Looking for an online site that I can use online or offline from any computer or mobile device...

I search all over cannot find the shortwave listening software can someone type type the name it on here.

Honorable mention to "Airlink Express" --- very nice software for working RTTY. www.airlinkexpress.org/download.html

Don't just send a thank-you ... send a donation if there isn't a payware version or buy one if there is.

Do you like PowerSDR best for Flex? I have a 1500 w/a HR 50 I would like to put on the air.

Can someone list the top 5 software links

That rig control error message can be frustrating!!!

Joe how are you 😂 hope to see you soon

he was born on 4/04/1974 which year we got freedom and died on 9/9/20 but we are sorry but the mhont and the date mathecs 9/9 and 4/4 coincedence

Send links please great video thank you

ELB30 is NOT free. The website demands payment of $135.

RIP Joe

Is there a linux version of the EibiView 3.0 software?

This video was in my KZfaq recommended page... Most of your favorite packages were originally written for nonWindows systems, and still better outside of Windows. This includes over half of Ham Radio Deluxe. Meanwhile the author of HRD refuses to cross-compile his originated stuff for other systems. Which is dumb, as these days Windows as a market environment, isn’t even the dominant OS anymore. I know the authors’ thoughts because he responded to my question on the matter, via email. More importantly, using Windows for specialized I/O, is an adventure in instability and inconsistency. These problems do not happen in other systems. Good luck with yer hobby, but Windows usage of these packages keeps me from watching this video. Moving on now!

I downloaded the ELIBIview30.zip file. After unzipping it, Norton Security immediately removed the ELIBI.exe file as dangerous and a security risk.

thank you I'll give it a go! Chad VK4HHA

I cannot find ELBview 30

found it sorry

Well Done! kt4rc

elb is not free
