I’m not sure how I got on his e-mail list, but this looks like an interesting collection of amateur radio software from Stephen H. Smith, WA8LMF….Dan
The January 2016 edition of the Ham Software SuperPak DVD (which among other things contains the MI ARRL Digital Modes Presentation in PDF format) is now available for download on my website.
IMPORTANT This release has updated tools to fight the abusive “Get Windows 10” nagware and forced-file-download campaign being mounted by Microsoft. If you are not yet aware, Microsoft is getting ready to try to FORCE you to upgrade to Windows 10 later this January. This is being done by reclassifying the Win 10 upgrade in Windows Update from “Optional” (defaulted to “Not Selected”) to “Important” (defaulted to “Selected”). [“Important” is a Windows Update category normally reserved for security patches and the like.]
If you don’t take pro-active actions now to block these outrages by Microsoft, you will boot your Windows 7 or 8 system sometime later this month or next ,only to see it attempting to install Windows 10 by itself.
The necessary blocking tools and detailed information, updated only 4 days ago, are located in the folder “\_I-Dont-Want-Windows-10” on the disk.
