-
- Hamview started life as a quick way to display the current repeater
- list. Then I added a list of cixen radio hams. Then a list
- of packet radio BBSs (and why not).
-
- Oh the Find command in the menu is CASE SENSITIVE. Try looking for
- the string 'DX' in the packetbbs list for example.
-
- See what you think.
-
-
- INSTALLATION.
- 1- You need VBRUN300.DLL (widely available) in c:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\ (not supplied)
- 2- Put THREED.VBX (unless you have a later version) in C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\
- 3- Put the *.HVW files in C:\HAMVIEW\ (sorry, they have to go there)
- 4- Put HAMVIEW.EXE anywhere (but c:\HAMVIEW is tidy)
-
- Either click on HAMVIEW.EXE from file manager, or install
- an icon in Program manager for hamview.exe
-
- HOW TO USE
- The small 'available lists' box (top right) should contain four
- names corresponding to amateur radio cixen, 2m and 70cm repeaters
- and packet bbss.
-
- Click one of the names, and the itmes in the list appear in the larger
- box bottom right. Click the first entry to place all the items on
- the UK map (this is visually entertaining but not very clear to look
- at). Once displayed you can click each item on the map, or in the
- list to examine the contents.
-
- And that's it really. (Written in Visual basic 3)
