With all did respect, this statement is not correct: "Win-7 ... runs very stable for all my applications except Chirp-Next"
In fact, chirp-next is not one of you applications that runs great on Win-7. It's the current version of chirp that runs fine, and there's no reason to expect that to change. Rather, chirp-next is effectively a new application that you're interested in using. But it's a new application, and it has new requirements that your current system doesn't meet. So you're fine for now, until you decide you really want a new edition of chirp. Then you'll have to decide if the improvements in chirp justify a Windows upgrade. It's really pretty cool that you have a system that still meets your needs after, what, 8 years? I've never managed that! I have a printer about that age, but everything around it has changed! 73, and happy chirping On Mon, Jan 2, 2023, 8:15 AM Dean Berglund <[email protected]> wrote: > Tony, you are correct although just because Microsoft doesn't support > Windows 7 doesn't mean a program can't still work on Windows 7. there are a > lot of hams I know that are still using Win-7 like I am and it runs very > stable for all my applications except Chirp-Next.
