For those of you who use Charles Brain's PCALE software to decode ALE transmissions, he has released a new Beta version of his popular software -- v1.062g. It is available for download at http://www.hflink.com/beta/.This is NOT the new big release version of PCALE that Charles and Steve are still working on.
Just a few of the new features of this Beta version include:
1. New window for text keyboarding.
2. Separately programmable sounding channels.
3. Improved decoding.
4. ALE-GPR Geo Position Reporting, for use with or without a GPS connected.
5. Better Ham Radio operation and transceiver support.
6. Separate ports for PTT and CAT7. Many many other interesting things...
This is a great program to follow many HF military nets that operate in the HF spectrum. We have posted quite a view of these nets on this blog since we opened our doors last May and have quite a few more to post in future messages.
In the meantime, how about jumping on the ALE bandwagon and join in the fun by downloading PCALE and firing up that HF receiver. Oh yea, the best part of all, the software is free!!!
