- Packy for Windows: Version 1.01
-
- Packy is designed for packet radio operation on ham radio frequencies
- using the AEA PK232 or PK88 controllers. Other AEA packet controllers
- may work, but have not been tested. Only AEA controllers will work, since
- Packy is designed to make extensive use of AEA's "host mode" and is thereby
- able to automatically route each connection to it's own separate window.
-
- To install Packy, copy PACKY.EXE and PACKY.HLP into a subdirectory together,
- and then use File Manager to drag and drop PACKY.EXE into a program group
- to create an icon. (Or you can use the Program Manager's File/New menu to
- create an icon.) If upon launching PACKY, you do not see the small start-up
- screen appear in the middle of Packy's main window, you need to make sure the
- serial port is properly configured.
-
- For tips and tricks on how to configure the serial port, see Packy's help file.
- You can start the help file by either:
- - From within Packy, use the help menu and select "Index".
- - Using File Manager, double click on PACKY.HLP in the directory you copied
- it to.
- - From Program Manager's File/Run menu, enter "WINHELP PACKY.HLP". If Packy is
- not in your path, you'll have to specify it's sub-directory.
-
- This version of Packy is shareware. Feel free to distribute it. Unregistered
- users, however, are restricted from some of it's coolest features. It's hoped
- that the unregistered version will still be very useful and enjoyable for you
- to use and you'll spread the word.
-
- This program was written 100% in 'C' using the Windows SDK and took me nearly a
- year of late nights and sore wrists to build. I hope you'll enjoy it enough to
- help support high-quality, low-cost shareware by registering.
-
- Questions, comments, and suggestions are welcome at the address or CompuServe
- account below. Remember that the FCC does not allow business traffic on
- amateur radio frequencies, so please don't send me business related traffic
- on packet radio.
