I agree with your assessment of EMP issues and have thought about this a

Clearly, the FCC no longer considers CW a necessary skill. No reasonable
person can deny that. The military (except for some special personnel)

I am wondering why CW, as a mode, becomes less valuable just because
there is no "upfront test" prior to licensing.
Were Digital and SSB modes previously considered less valuable than CW
because there was prerequiste testing in either mode before we got our
licenses? Maybe Digital operators co

W1AW should be able to locate a clear frequency in most cases by moving
a few hundred Hz away from an ongoing QSO. They are not generally hard

Some thoughts on this:
1. I am mostly retired except for the farming operation and we no longer
have any livestock over the winter so that means minimal chores other
than keeping the woodstove burning.
2. It only takes a few seconds to look it up as I have Part 97 on my
computer as a basic .do

I do not agree - a competent programmer can easily write good networking
software under Windows, even when using VISTA!
All,
I did not realize the controversial nature of this topic; I seriously
was trying to have the question answered while trying to (seemingly
poorly) tip-toe around that known peripheral issues that seem to
always inspire ire. Lesson learned and I will comment no further on
this.

This encapsulates perfectl
I was thinking of a common scenario, at least in DXLab, where the user is
tuning his or her transceiver, and Commander is sending frequency updates to
DXKeeper (logging), WinWarbler or MultiPSK or MixW (digital mode support),
SpotCollector (for outgoing spots), PropView (to select the correct

I would certainly want to prototype some of the more strenuous use cases
before agreeing to XML over TCP. In DXLab, I use ADIF-like tags over DDE;
compared with XML, its less verbose, and provides transparency.

In my point of view:

Its easy to build a client (maybe), its more complicated to build a

Besides a C++ DLL, the other workarounds are VB6 and Delphi.
There's no question that Microsoft would like us to stop using DDE in new
applications; that's been clear since the introduction of .NET years ago.

If w1aw had to listen and move to find a clear spot then how would people
find them.. Why can't the other users realise where and when w1aw does
their code practice and keep the frequency clear... then everyone could
'hear' w1aw's code practice, rather than having to tune around looking for
it.

Yes, indeed, those layers need to be designed separately. If it works
over TCP and uses only one connection, it will work over serial, and if
it uses more than one connection then some means of mux for the serial
would be necessary. Deciding the goals and the various bindingd would
