ANNOUNCEMENT

The latest version of HAMCALC “Painless Math for Radio Amateurs” software is available as a free download at <www.cq-amateur-radio.com>. For anyone not familiar with this handy tool it is best described in the words of its author, George Murphy, VE3ERP:

“Math is not one of my strong points so when I got my first computer I wrote a program for every equation I had occasion to solve more than once. The collection of programs grew rapidly and in 1993 I compiled them all into one entity which I named “HAMCALC” and gave it away free to anyone who asked. It is still growing and it is still free.”

There are over 400 programs, most of which contain several equations, all in one compact package (2.2 Mb) that downloads very quickly. It is very user friendly; menu driven mostly by single key strokes (you don’t even need a mouse). 

For further information contact <ve3erp@rac.ca> or better still, download the latest version of HAMCALC and try it out!
