Hi  Roger

I use a small notebook Archos 10 with Xp OS and a SignaLink USB box which has a data cable to the the FT-817 to run WSPR (used mainly for HF antenna comparative tests). The Archos is also used with with the AIM4170 impedance analyser and another bit of kit for measuring and displaying signal levels. The latter two items use the old RS232 port but nevertheless will run with the Archos by using an RS232/USB converter.

Regards

Peter, G3LDO
Can anyone give me some advice on the suitability (or not) of small 1GHz RAM Atom 
based netbooks (available for about £189 new) for these modes/applications? I'd 
like something more power efficient that could be used out /P as well as at home.
