John, the outrage over Pactor is not about Pactor, but about unattended,
automatic transmissions on HF that routinely, and unnecessarily, disrupt all
other communications on the frequency. It has nothing to do with the Pactor
mode itself.

Turn off your main circuit breakers for the house. That will quickly
tell you if the problem is in your house or not.
Run the CB and 10m units off of a battery for the test.

Hi Frank:
VISTA is dead, read artical in Maxium PC, US government will not use it and MS
has advanced the release date of System 7 to 2009 ( a year earlier than
planed).. But Vista is such a bust ( 20% slower than XP that they are going to
let it die the slow death). The best way IS ( as you
HI
word is from the forward looking computer mags that VISTA is now DEAD. The US
government has refused to use it and it doesn't look like many more fixes are
upcoming.. Instead they have moved up the release date of new OS ,, System 7
to 2009.. Vista was just like Mill was many years ago...
Hi Rick:
The US government has now informed MS that they WILL continue to support XP
as they will not be using VISTA ( see MaxiumPC) VISTA is now on its death
bed..but no great loss.. WAY to many problems.

I ordered a Dell custom built, and had available for
an OS either XP Home/XP Pro or one of the many Vista's
installed on it.
I went with XP Home, as that is what I currently use
and the wife knows it also.
Still to many bugs with Vista for my liking.

That's OK, John. I only used NBEMS as an example that all the anger against
Pactor is misunderstood, because it just happens that unattended stations
use Pactor (because it is very good), and it is the unattended stations and
their clients that justly deserve the anger of the rest of us who

That seems to be one of those perpetuating comments I see so often.
Traveller, without plagiarizing someone's news article, how about
listing some of those 'bugs'?
Okay, well,

Look for products marketed to businesses. HP loads XP on workstations like the
xw4400 but puts Vista on products for home use.

As one who daily monitors the various OS issues, I had seen both of the
articles beforehand. The PCMag article gave you a comparison of sorts. I
think they were a bit light on Vista. They need to discuss the invasive
