OmarEastwind User ID: 1493015 United States 01/09/2012 09:59 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | No extra hardware needed, just your PC, a microphone, speakers and you are ready to call CQ on the virtual Ham Radio bands. Once you have installed this Ham Radio Software you will be able to communicate with thousands of Amateur Radio operators and radio enthusiasts from over 200 countries around the world. You can even use it without a Ham Radio License. Quoting: wing-ed [link to www.hamsphere.com] That's pretty cool, but after I got it downloaded and set up, it told me that it was only a 6 day free trial... |
