Introduction.

# 1. Introduction.

Contents of this section

This list was prompted by comments that had been expressed in the various Linux newsgroups about the number of amateur radio operators that were involved with Linux. It is now clear that Linux is becoming a popular platform for Amateur Radio development work.

This list was originally called the RADIOLINUX list, but Matt Welsh suggested that there was no reason why it shouldn't be distributed with the Linux Documentation Project documents, so it has been renamed the HAM-HOWTO and will be made available with the rest of the Linux Documentation. I make no apologies for the name.
