Strays	Add a Stray!

Hi Not sure which part of the forum this should go. Two friends, one using a PC the other using a Mac are keen to listen to Amateur/Ham transmissions. Is there a computer based receiving program they can use/download? Of course they can't use the likes of W7DXX. Thanks es 73 Mike ~ G4UPD mikejparks@gmail.com

Shack Showcase	N7SG Radio Room

Small qrp rigs and a few big rigs make up the shack. QRP rigs include Elecraft K1/K2, Wilderness NC-40a and SST's. QRO rigs include Icom 775DSP for SSB, Icom 756ProII for CW...and a Drake B Line just for good measure. All rig/antenna switches are mounted on a pull out keyboard tray...& 800MHz wireless headphones keep me connected to the action. 88, Annette N7SG
