Sad that somebody should have so much free time to waste doing a program like
this. Why did I write it well I was fed up when listening to the radio spending
ages looking up an Amateur radio call signs. looking at the small print on
World Amateur radio maps or trying to find an Alfa tango call book. This as
they say is the result.
I'm not expert on any of the above if you can do any better send me the text
and I will include it in the program. Any up to date info would be nice.
History:-
Writen on an A1200 10 MEGS ViperII CD Drive Blitz Basic 2.1
8000 lines of text.
Started writing this in about 1994 Version 0.1 was very bad.
Just had Alfa Tango Calls.
1995 Total rewrite 3 times to try and make it as fast as possible
added ham calls.
1996 Decided to get of my arse and finish the program this is it.
This program needs WB3 to run, an A1200 or better it may run on less but less
is not better upgrade and get a life.
Goodbye and thanks for all the fish.
