I could spend a lot of time searching the net, but maybe someone can point me to something a little more novice oriented. I do not have "the bible of Stevens". Are there standard applications that I could start (under X11 perhaps) and that would multicast on my local network - and other applications that I could run on another computer to receive the data? Could be a good starting point to learn how to use it. Under Linux it might be available as source code;-) 73 Leif / SM5BSZ ############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list <linrad@antennspecialisten.se>.
