   Good day Daryl,   
      
   CS> HG> The URL's are www.hamsphere.com and http://hamradio.se .   
      
   DS>   Unlike things like CQ100, Echolink, and D-Star, both licensed hams   
   DS> and SWL (shortwave listeners)...who may or may not have a ham radio   
   DS> license...can use it. It simulates what the HF bands are like. There   
   DS> is a yearly fee, and you can purchase various "shack accessories"   
   DS> from their website.   
      
   I wish that you would first examine what is described at those URL's   
   before condemning them.   
      
   The 'http://hamradio.se' certainly isn't offering any subscription or   
   'shack accesories'. I believe that the site is the home of the author   
   of the article (information).   
      
   The important thing is that the file I mentioned can be downloaded and   
   read free of any obligations.   
      
   It can also be downloaded directly from Facebook if you create or have   
   an account there.   
      
   Maybe there was some suggestions to subscribe or something else but I   
   didn't pay any attention to them.   
      
   I can only feel sorry that you wasn't the one suggesting that reading.   
      
      
   Regards,   
      
   Holger   
      
      
   .. The truth will set you free.  But first it'll piss you off.
