It stinks

For $47.00 I would have expected a program that is much better than a program that is free (I won't mention the program.) I have been using that other program for a long time but wanted a program that was integrated with it's own mapping program because of my new laptop which is running Window Vista Home Premium. But I will have to make do with the old program.

Excellent turnkey start into APRS
|
Time owned: 6 to 12 months

There's a myriad of software and interfaces out there for APRS. I wanted to get started with a minimum of complexity and the inclusion of MapPoint in the package was very attractive. And I was rewarded with an easy to install and configure application that I've been pretty happy with (albeit with Kenwood TNC radios, which probably help with keeping it simple). From what I can tell, it's got the basics covered (I'm not familiar with any other packages at this point) and that's been great for getting my feet wet in this aspect of the hobby.
I can heartily recommend this to APRS newcomers, and the support is excellent as well.
