I had a PC failure this morning - my only Windows machine, which is only used to run Spectrum Lab for the grabber - and have been unable to resurrect it (as yet). I discovered happily that Spetrum Lab will run on Linux under "Wine" (a bit like myself... Chilean Carmenere for preference), I've set up a temporary arrangement to keep the grabber running from this Linux box until I can kick the Windows machine into life. The beacon transmission ongoing this weekend is obviously reducing the grabber's usefulness, but the beacon is for the benefit of the "NDBList" members who are providing useful reception reports during the "Co-ordinated Listening Event" which encompasses the amateur 500kHz allocation. It's great to have serious MF/CW/Beacon chasers listening on the band. Regards, John
