Disk No  436
Program Title: HAM RADIO #1
PC-SIG version 1.2
 
    There are three different Morse code programs on this diskette to help
the user learn, practice, and review data. Other routines help the amateur
radio operator compute various electronic formulas, design antennas, find
satellites, and calculate satellite orbits. RTTY and TTY are two different
communication programs using BAUDOT, ASCII, or Morse code at varying
speeds. READSSTV is a fascinating program that takes audio (speaker output)
and converts tones to a picture format; the user with a satellite antenna
can receive, store, and view pictures from the space shuttle (four are here
on the diskette).
 
Usage: Ham Radio
 
System Requirements: 128K memory, one disk drive, and a version of BASIC.
 
How to Start: Load BASIC then load the desired program.
 
Suggested Registration: None

the picture output.  The display begins a quarter of the way
down the screen and then the final quarter of the picture
appears at the top of the screen!
