Re: [radio-prog@yhgrps] Software sharing

Ham dmz has a bunch for free

I find it funny especially when someone asks for software or offers to
give away software AND includes their company or organization name.

I mean, sure, the Big Radio /\/\anufacturers could go after Joe Smith
offering to give a copy of his software, but it would look much better
on paper for them to go after a company or an organization that offers
to give away their software.

Oh well, I'm sure someone here will eventually get busted and learn
their lesson.
