Let me update the info. I now live in the Pacific Northwest, so the current mailing info is: Jack Brindle, WA4FIB (as in a little white lie ;-) 726 175th Street SW Bothell, WA 98012 Compuserve: 73365,606 internet: jackb@mdd.comm.mot.com AppleLink: BRINCOMM The current version is 1.4, although you won't find it in the archives _yet_. Version 1.1 is quite old, V1.2 was slightly buggy, and V1.3 was pretty solid. I recently rewrote the program for V1.4, and plan to rewrite the sound generation code in the near future to allow rates higher than 24 wpm. Morse Tutor is 'QSLware.' I simply ask for a QSL or post card to let me know how you like the program and what improvements you might like. There are several other Morse programs around, some can be found at the Apple archives (ftp.apple.com) in the pub/ham radio area. I also recently received a pretty good program from a ham in Japan (sorry, can't remember the details). If you are interested in mine, send a request. I'll try to get it emailable soon, AND into the various archives. If you _really_ can't get it electronically, send me a diskette to the above address. -- ========================================================== Jack Brindle ham radio: wa4fib internet: jackb@mdd.comm.mot.com
