[Coco] Ham Radio for the CoCo

[Stephen Fischer]

It's the delayed interest in running Ham Radio Software on CoCo's.

I added to the interest by finding my CoCo2 SSTV, Fax, Wefax, RTTY and 
CW software I purchased plus the remaining booklet of A5's CoCo2 
articles by Clay Abrams (Hell on Wheels in Person but his face would win 
an award).

I checked and no one (NO ONE) contacted the author of the CoCo3 WEFax 
software.

So what people want they just give up at some point.

Don't read too much into the the discussions here, they may likely never 
go anywhere which will require much interest to making available what I 
have.
